    Never used keyboard covers... I suppose that they might keep things a
    little cleaner.... ;)

    Like dropping crumbs between the keys. :P

    And protect from things floating in the air, like cat hair, dust, etc...

    I just turn mine upside down and give it a good shake from time to time.

    I sometimes worry that I could reconstitute a muffin out of the crumbs that come out.

    Other suggestions?

    1. Run the sticky side of a post-it note between the keys.
    2. A paintbrush with soft bristles does wonders.
    3. Canned air.
