best site I've found for cubing is blueknightcubing.com
and the best type of f2l is intuitive
simply think about it for a bit and you should get good at the situations that arise

Look up the Lars Petrus method- it requires no memorization, just logic. I'm nowhere near being able to do it though.
What speedcubes are you all using? Right now I'm using the CII+C4U hybrid, with a GuHong on its way.

Look up the forum rules that say you're supposed to introduce yourself before posting anywhere else

What method for solving do you use? I use the beginer's method and I recently achieved a PB of 24 sec.
