As the program comes to a close, we decided to ask the participants about their experiences—what they liked, didn’t like, favorite games and apps—and if they created any new traditions with their desktop this year.

The state of that flat surface around your computer says a lot about you, according to a study from Hunch.com – which found that those with organized desks “tend to be more tech-savvy” and are 5 percent more likely to put their personal and social life first. Where do you fit in? And what are some good tips for making your messy desk (and PC's desktop) a little less cluttered? Keep reading for some great tips
