Keep Cables in Check With the Bluelounge CableClip

Although Spring is the perfect time to declutter and organize your life, there's no reason you can't maintain a level of cleanliness all year round, especially when it comes to managing your cables.

Although Spring is the perfect time to declutter and organize your life, there's no reason you can't maintain a level of cleanliness all year round, especially when it comes to managing your cables. New gadgets come in and out of our lives all the time, which is why we need to constantly keep our cords in check. Perfectly prepped for the task is the Bluelounge Cableclip ($10), which keeps your cords and cables neat and tidy in your bag or on your desk.

Just wrap your chargers, Ethernet cables, USB peripherals, or whatever in the multisized CableClip (coming in small, medium, and large, in packs of six, four, and two, respectively) and you're ready to go. Pack them along on your next trip, or just keep from pulling your own hair out while on the job. They're cheap enough to keep in stock at home too, so you'll never have to look at that rat's nest behind your entertainment center ever again.

The Name Says It All: Bluelounge's Refresh Charging Station

In case you haven't noticed, I have a thing for charging stations.

In case you haven't noticed, I have a thing for charging stations. I just can't get enough of 'em. Call it my OCD for cable management, or the fact that between my boyfriend and I combined, we have more gadgets than a small country, but I love a nice and neat desk where my gadgets can refresh and recharge. This is why I love Bluelounge's Refresh charging station. Coming in three colors (black, white and pink), the Refresh boasts mini and micro USB cables, and has room for five of your most coveted gadgets: iPod, BlackBerry, iPhone, camera, or whatever you need juiced up.

Although I have much love for this simple and stylish charging station, I do have a gripe: the $90 price tag. Whoa? Whoa is right. Sure, this baby keeps all your cords out of sight and managed, but how much are you willing to pay for a sleek pink plastic box? Ponder that, my friends.

Bluelounge Sanctuary: An Organizational Haven For Your Gadgets

I'm obsessed with docking stations!

I'm obsessed with docking stations! I think it's awesome to have all of your gadgets being charged neatly in one designated spot so you never forget to grab this or that as you're walking out the door. I can't tell you how many times I was already outside my apartment, on my way to work, when I realized my iPhone was still sitting on the coffee table! Go a day without my iPhone? Never!

So when I saw some of the Bluelounge products at MacWorld this year, I was stoked when they told me about the Sanctuary. Now that it's finally available, I can get organized in style. To see what's so great (and not so great) about The Sanctuaryread more
