Goo – not exactly the most pleasant thing around. Yet we're introducing to you a special goo: the Cyber Clean, one amazing gadget that will most likely instantly become the best friend of those cleanliness maniacs... and even more. As we tend to our daily business, we're using a lot of tools with shapes and designs that are prone to gather and shelter bacteria and other similar not-so-healthy life forms; and here we must add computer keyboards, said to host more bacteria and germs than a toilet seat, mobile phones, which gather a lot of dirt between keys and in other orifices, and the list could go on forever.

 

Now, some gadgets can be cleaned with rather little effort, but in the case of others you simply can't rinse them under a water jet or emerge them in alcohol or anything like that. Well, what's to be done?

 

The Cyber Clean is one solution that looks very promising as well as fun. We're talking about a lemon-scented can full of yellow goo that might look repulsive to some. Yet, it is completely non-adhesive so it will not leave any traces on your hands or gear; the only thing that will remain after the Cyber Clean passes by is a vague lemon aroma, which will make you look at your gadgets with renewed pleasure.

Using the Cyber Clean goo is extremely easy and even fun, since all you have to do in squeeze the blob upon the object you want to clean: its special texture will then allow this pile of goo to stretch and enter through the narrowest orifices and openings and thus reach in places that are most likely impossible to clean unless the whole equipment is disassembled; which isn't at all possible in some cases.

 

As the Cyber Clean gets in contact with dirt the blob will make bacteria and other nasty stuff adhere to it so you'll be able to pull it out with great ease when removing the gooey gadget. Peeling the Cyber Clean off gadgets will leave absolutely no sticky residue and it is extremely easy. Germs will be killed and your gear will remain clean and pleasantly-scented as further proof of cleanliness. The gooey blob will also change color when its powers begin to fade away, telling you it's time to get a new one.

 

Just make sure you power off the gadgets to be cleaned and refrain from using it to clean camera lenses. And be careful if you're looking to clean the narrow angle between the lens edges. While the Cyber Clean is not silly putty, despite its strong resemblance, this cleaning goo isn't suitable for children under 14. In case the Cyber Clean works as described, the under $15 price is a true deal. We’re wondering, how many keyboards can a can of this goo clean?

 

We are just a few, but there are many of you, Softpedia users, out there. That's why we thought it would be a good idea to create an email address for you to help us a little in finding gadgets we missed. Interesting links are bound to be posted with recognition going mainly to those who submit. The address is .
