Took me a moment to notice that this is a presentation with multiple slides (despite the site name).

Me too. Instructions on the start page would help.

Interesting though. Last Century a couple friends and I figured out the cube. We did it different than all the methods I've seen: 1 side then all corners, opposite sides, then middle layer.

They are very satisfying to move.

My favorite rubiks cube variant from the 80s (clones where everywhere) was the cube that had all the same colors so you couldn't mess it up.

Nice job.

I used to have the solutions memorized... it helped me get a job offer once because the hiring manager left to get some water and came back less than a minute later with the cube on his desk solved. When you don't know the tricks it can be impressive when someone does that. If you know the tricks it is just a silly time waster.

It's a neat thing to learn. Of course some people like to try to figure out the patterns on their own. :)
