External cable management ideas?

Ok, my external cable management is crap. It's WW2.

 

I've heard of some Ikea Segnum or something.. not sure what it is

Requirements: Needs to be easily moved (cables have to be able to be moved around easily when needed)

Would like it to look good and not just "hold the cables off the ground"

 

Any ideas would be appreciated :)

The IKEA Signum rack is all right.

Also, twist ties and 3M tape are your best friends.

I am not a professional. I am not an expert. I am just a smartass. Don't try and blame me if you break something when acting upon my advice.

Cable management is tough for me, I have a glass table top. 

 

You could try to get some velcro wrap of some sort, instead of tape or zipties. And after doing that, get some plastic wire tubing from home depot, and group them all into the tubing.
