Is your question "What type of "How To" videos would you want to see on the Internet?" or "Where can I find short n' sweet free how-to videos?" posted by designbot at 3:08 PM on May 3, 2007
I wish there were a website where you could type in a food or a recipe and a short video pops up. Imagine if Food Network archived every episode they've aired. You could then type in "mashed potatoes" and you'd get, like, 20 results. Watch Emeril make mashed potatoes! Watch Mario make them! Type in asparagus, see all the ways asparagus can be prepared, and what recipes you can use them in. Of course, it would take a shit-ton of editing and archiving, but it would be SO AWESOME. posted by billysumday at 3:09 PM on May 3, 2007
I would like to see video versions of the crappy assembly instructions you get with toys, furniture, assorted devices, anything that has poorly writen instructions and poorly drawn diagrams. A 3 minute video could same me hours and cost them next to nothing. posted by Megafly at 5:02 PM on May 3, 2007

Rouxbe is the less comprehensive real beta of Billy Sumday's heart's desire. I have to admit, I haven't used it that much. Honestly I'm a good enough cook to not need to see someone add the spices one at a time to be able to follow a recipe myself, but some basic techniques and skills put in the context of a good recipe are great to have on video. Those old cookbook standards-check your egg foam on the back of a spoon for peaks, your bread dough should be smooth and elastic-don't compare to seeing what a perfectly whipped meringue looks like, or how proofed dough yields to the hand. posted by Juliet Banana at 7:35 PM on May 3, 2007
