I used to spend way too much time untangling my earbuds. A real frustration.
My work-around until today has been a wooden paint-stirrer (I wrap the earbuds around the stick), which is OK, but it takes up room, and is impractical if I don't have my backpack with me. I decided there must be some piece of equipment for this. Here's what I found:
A Better Way to wrap headphones from brian on Vimeo.
This lifehacker description does a good job of describing a similar technique, known as the "devil's horn" technique, but I like the video's music and drama.
I've tried the devil's horn wrap several times and it seems to work well. Will see how it holds up after it's been in a pocket for awhile and pushed around as I hunt for things in my purse or backpack.
Or there's the budcozy.
More ideas here.
Some people wrap theirs around their mp3 player, and that probably works great, but I mostly listen to my mp3 player through my radio via an adapter in the lighter socket.
