Several weeks ago, I took a can of compressed air and sprayed my computer keyboard at work. I thought that it would get some dust out, plain and simple. Holy cow.

What came out was dust, hair, food, grime, and a small furry animal. Seriously, it was DISGUSTING how dirty it was. Obviously it was no surprise to me to see a list of things dirtier than my toilet with a computer keyboard as the first thing.

Here is the list:

1. Your Keyboard
2. The Kitchen
3. Men’s Wallet
4. Women’s Desk

Click to see the reasoning behind each. And go clean your keyboard RIGHT NOW!

4 Things in Your House Dirtier Than A Toilet

Have you ever opened up your Twitter only to see that someone has posted 20 things in the last 5 minutes? It’s really annoying! Well, now you can choose to “snooze” someone if they do that. With TwitterSnooze!, you can sort of “block” someone temporarily from having their Tweetsa show up in your Twitter feed.

Say for example, I was at a conference and I was Twittering every update. If you could care less about that, you could snooze me for “X” amount of days. After that time had passed, my tweets would resume showing up in your Twitter feed.

The only thing is that once the snooze time expires, I think the person you snoozed gets an email saying that you are following them again. But other than that, it looks pretty cool.

Here is a great article on how to choose more secure passwords for all of the websites you visit. If you are anything like me, you could probably use a boost in your security. Maybe I should stop using “1 2 3 4 5″ as my password for everything.

Anyways, here is a clip from the article on choosing the “base” part of the password:

The first letter of a phrase or song refrain. For example, if you wanted to use the famous Jackson 5 song “I Want You Back”, your base password might be “IWUB.” Remembering the password is a matter of singing yourself the song.

So once you have that, you can customize it with other info.  For example, if you used “IWUB” as the base, you could take the 1st three letters of the name of the website you had a password on.  So for amazon.com, your password there could be IWUBAMA.  Get it?

That’s just one idea of many.  For the rest, go read the article.

You probably know bacon as the star of the BLT and the bacon cheeseburger. But there are so many other ways we can incorporate it into our diets and our lives! Here are a few of the 50 ways to use bacon. And if you don’t like bacon, well, I will pray for you.

• Make a good old BLT sandwich, of course.
• Bacon cheeseburgers will make anyone’s mouth water. Meat topped with more meat? Perfection!
• Bacon-wrapped tater tots would go perfectly with that bacon cheeseburger!
• Roast a bacon-wrapped turkey for Sunday dinner.
• Make delicious bacon pastry slices.

I am not normally one to play Flash games online, but this one sucked me in.  It is so simple, yet difficult to beat.  You basically click somewhere on the screen and try and set off a chain reaction of circles.  Just give it a try, you will get sucked in.  I played it until I had beaten all 12 levels (after about a hundred tries).

O, and the music is very calming.

Play it!

Would you buy these? As for me, I would have to say no. It’s just a little too far on the geeky side.

From their website:

A wedding set for the unconventional! The female ring has a choice of four opaque colors: turquoise, white, orange or black. The male ring stands tall and dramatically transparent. Switch-up the sexes! Order two of the same! The world is your technological oyster.
