Rubik's Cube Resources: Work in Progress

I've been busy, and it's not going to waste. I'm not gonna waste putting comments and putting a billion dividers. None of that extra stuff, just links and basic dividers..

Tutorials of various methods will be listed under the Youtube section under the username of the video's creator.

Videos under Youtube users COMING SOON!

If you have any links to suggest, just send me a holler.

I actually promise that I'll work on this more often, but for now all I have is the Fridrich and Youtube section.

This thread should be sticky. Of course it needs many-many more tutorial links but still. Then useless threads won't be here so many.

Also many tutorials on methods. Fridrich, Petrus, Waffles Roux tutorial and so on. And Other puzzles too.
 
It is really nice to have this service. I had to scour Youtube for some time to get the infomation to solve cubes from 1x1x1 to 7x7x7 and even more to get those wonderful algs that really make cubing fun. For example, I had to look at about 50 Youtube videos to gain the parity pair removal algs and really nifty other stuff.
 
I agree this thread should be sticky. Make sure it is in a final format that deserves being stickied (fix any typos, finish adding any material you want to include) and PM me. After that I'll sticky it.

I'd just like to point out that this is a better link than just ebay:
http://toys.shop.ebay.com/items/Rub...187QQ_trksidZp3286Q2ec0Q2em14QQ_sopZ10QQ_scZ1

Tinyurl that all you want

Also stores:
C4Y
Mefferts
Puzzlproz
9spuzzles
a ton more

Edit: I would also remove that tutorial on how to break in a cube by RampageCuber. It just seems to be a bunch of completely random and unnecessary things, not to mention that he actually suggests putting Vaseline in a cube.

Yes, just for fun. Believe it or not, some Youtubers do tutorials for the 1x1x1.

I won't name the offenders (as one is very well known here!) but here is some of the "solution" methods I've seen on Youtube for the 1x1x1:

#1: U U'

#2: L' [x2], U' [x4], R R U' L U'

#3: U R U R U R

#4: U R U' R' U' F, U R' F U' F' U2
 
As for other websites, I did look at a few non Youtube sites. One was used alot to help me solve a 4x4x4 and another one taught me how to do the last two centres of a 5x5x5.

I think something as extensive as this would do better in the Wiki where everyone can add to it rather than only one person.
 
I don't like when people comment on my beginners method vid that it is too long. The method is 25 minutes and then 6 min optional example solve follows. Arnauds 8 part video must be together almost a full hour. My previous beginners tut was also 30 min when strung together. Most decent beginners videos are almost as long bit are broken into parts that creates the illusion

I honestly don't think you can make it faster and not loose majority of people. Sorry
