September 25, 2015

Spring Cleaning
March 22, 2011
The spring equinox is fast approaching the northern hemisphere, and it won’t be long until the phrase “spring cleaning” is knocking at our doorsteps. Spring is a time of regrowth, renewal and rejuvenation. It’s a time to start outdoor projects the winter has kept grounded for months on end and get around to all the things we’ve been putting off: cleaning the basement, painting the house, being cheerful, etc. So what better time to do a little “spring cleaning” on our home PCs?

I spend a lot of time wading through the garbage trying to find what I’m actually looking for when I could just clean up these useless files and move on.
Spring is a perfect time to do the computer cleaning that’s been a long time coming.
