As we're headed into August and preparing for a new season and the beginning of a new school year, there's some pressure to get organized!

Whether you’re a student, remote employee or just a neat freak (like us!) -- a clean and organized desk can actually help you to stay focused and bring more zen to your study or work time. 

So, here are a few of our favorite space-saving desktop tips from around the web:

• Consumer Reports recommends the Space Bar monitor stand and we love it too: “[It] raises your monitor off the desk for more ergonomic viewing and helps declutter your desk by providing storage space for your keyboard.”
• MacWorld.com editor, Joel Mathis suggests HIDEit Mounts’ MiniU under desk/VESA/wall mount to “get a little more elbow room,” and we couldn't agree more! “The $40 Mac mini wall mount lets you clean up desk space by mounting your Mac mini to the back of your computer monitor, or on the wall right behind the monitor.” 
• Joel also suggests the Bluelounge Posto headphone stand. AppleWorld.today agrees that it’s a must-buy to keep your desktop clear: “Instead of just tossing my ‘phones onto the desktop and having them take up about 52 square inches of space, I now hang them on the Posto with its 18 square inch base.”
