ok so this is a thread that hopefully won't be considered too bad by the 'pos. basically although i'm still in a process of settling down, i feel that my desk/office is too messy, and short of getting rid of everything on it so i don't have to subject anyone to my posting, i'd like to improve the neatness. it isn't too bad, mostly just lots of wires because i have two monitors, a rmbp, and a desktop that sits on the floor to the side. i remember seeing things like those nets that go on the underside of the desk top, do they sell those by themselves?

initially when i moved in i tried some of the hue lights for lighting but not the flood light kind so they weren't really effective and i returned them. i would also like a stand/side hook for headphones but i'm not sure what to get. maybe something that would hook on the wall? what does everyone else use?

thanks in advance!!
