In my apartment, my power outlets are not very well placed. This book shelf is fixed, so I made the best of it by using this power cords, which have a 90 degree angle. This reduces the potential mess.

San Francisco Plug
Submitted by Howard Nuk
This Breville kitchen appliance features a circular finger pull on its plug to allow for ease of use. It's great for appliances that are regularly used (ie juicers, grillers) but don't "live" on the counter when not in use.

Shanghai Safety Plugs
Submitted by Jan Chipchase
6 month old baby will put her fingers in anything that accept them, will try to eat anything that fits in her mouth. China has different power sockets on one unit - and whilst safety plugs are available for the 3-pin, they are not for the 2-pin. We use the (ineffective) method of furniture blocking.

New York Conference Room
Submitted by Erik Manley
The projector power cord was 3 feet long—8 feet too short for any wall outlets. The nearest outlet was the ceiling, and the only available extension cord was 4 feet. This was our work around to get to the projector plugged in as it doesn’t have a battery.

To manage my active peripheral cables, I loop them on the corner of my shelving unit. Each cable is also labeled for the device it belongs to. My headphones are also there to keep their cable from getting tangled.

Shanghai Home Media Center

All cords and cables attached to media center. Nothing really ever comes unplugged. 6 different devices in one space=6 different plugs needed. The power strip is my best friend. I have 6 in my 900sq. foot home.
