I got this idea today while I was checking out videos on YouTube.

The idea is basically to create a playlist for a topic and then put all the best videos of that particular topic in the playlist. For example, a playlist called "CFOP - Cross" could be created and then badmephisto's and Erik Akkersdijk's Cross tutorials could be added in there. For F2L, badmephisto and RiDo's tutorials, etc. This idea could be expanded to other methods and other puzzles.

The purpose of this is mostly to save time (by just referring to a playlist rather that searching through YouTube for good tutorials) and to refer to beginners who ask "Which is the best this, which is the best that." I hope you get my idea.

I want you guys to tell me if this idea is good, and if so, to suggest in this thread new videos and playlists which could be added.

An example of such a playlist can be found in my Channel (it's KunParekh18).

Its better if beginners discover what they like themselves..

That's true, but I see no problem with them discovering what that is from a list of videos that most people consider best. Look at it like movies. You don't tell people what movies to like, but there are certain movies that are agreed to be the best ones by many people. If you make a playlist of 100 F2L videos that you like, then from there people can find the ones they want to see. I agree that a small list doesn't help so much, but it could be nice to see a large number compiled in one place.

I agree with this. But there aren't many tutorials really.

I don't think it's a bad idea at all. There's plenty of junk on YouTube, so much so that I only check out someone's videos if I see it recommended by another cuber. It would be nice to filter out all the unboxings, the needlessly long intros, the incorrect tutorials, and everything else that YouTube seems to accumulate. It can be hard to find something actually worth watching on YouTube, and the real trouble is that sometimes it's difficult to tell the difference when you're just starting out.

This exactly describes my purpose for this project.
