Problem: Cords That Are Too Long
One cord that’s much longer than you need it to be can get all tangled up in itself or in nearby wires, making a mess that can trip you up.

The Situation: The extra wire is in plain sight — say, on the desktop.
The Solution: An update on the Cable Turtle, the flexible rubber XL Cable Organizer opens like a spool, so you can wrap thin to medium wires around its spindle; then it pops back into a slim, Jetson-esque pod.
To Buy: $15, www.containerstore.com.
