How to "Autozip" your earbuds cord

This is a new way to keep your earbuds cord untangled.

Find a long zipper, get some thread and a needle, and you can do it too. The HowTo can be found there:

I read many articles about the best way to manage your cord, but none pleased me. I always had the idea of using a zipper to tie the 2 secondary cords together when not using them, but I felt it was not sufficient (what to do with the main cord?). One day, I went through a market in London and I saw a guy selling zipper purses. I found the principle of sewing together the 2 sides of the zipper just wonderful, and yet so simple... I knew I could use it somehow: I finally found that I  had to sew the 2 sides in a way that would hold the main cord. You will find the exact explanation by following the links. Have fun!

I have to admit that white is not the best color for that kind of thing. I guess black would have been better, but I did not want to spend more time searching for it. My main goal was to prove to myself that it could work. And it does, as you can see on the video!
