Have you ever recorded yourself, perhaps for a podcast or YouTube, and struggled to locate all the places where you need to edit out your mistakes?

In the future, when you make a mistake while recording a narration, just clap your hands. Later, when you're editing the audio, the claps will show up as spikes on the waveform, making it easy to identify and fix any mistakes.

And if you're editing a video, put your hands up for a few seconds to mark where you want to make a cut. When you review the footage, you'll be able to easily see where to make the cut thanks to your hand gesture.

These simple tips can make your editing processing much more efficient.

If you're tired of dealing with tangled cords and cables on your desk, a spring and magnet can be a powerful combination for keeping them organized.

First, remove the spring from a ballpoint pen (or any other small spring) and wrap it around the cord. Then, get a small, strong neodymium magnet to hold the cord in place.

Not only is this a low-cost DIY solution, but it's also a convenient way to keep your cords organized and easily accessible with the spring allowing you to move the cord around as needed.

Instead of worrying whether or not it's been sanitized (hint: chances are it probably hasn't), pack a plastic freezer bag on top of all of your clothes in your suitcase.
