National Clean Your Virtual Desktop Day — 17 October

There are exactly 365 days in a year, yet most of us neglect the condition of our computers. Technology is more advanced than ever, so we have become accustomed to not maintaining them. Thanks to the good folks at the Personal Computer Museum, of Ontario Canada, that has changed. On the third Monday of October, on October 17 this year, people celebrate National Clean Your Virtual Desktop Day by doing just that — making sure their desktops are cleaned.
