Looking for “pad” for my keyboard + mouse in a multi-monitor setup

Question

I've got 2 large monitors. My keyboard and mouse are in the middle of my desk which is appropriate for work on both monitors but when I want to focus on one of them only (say that I'm writing in MS Word on the right monitor), I'd like to move my keyboard and mouse to the right. I can do that manually but because of all the wires and other things, it is quite inconvenient when done frequently.

I'm looking for something that I would put under both my keyboard and my mouse and that would slide to one side or the other easily. Is there anything like that available on the market?

Get a USB hub and put it behind your keyboard, then tie up the cables between the keyboard/mouse until you have the shortest length needed.

This assumes you have a USB keyboard and mouse.
