my advice to you is to learn how to do it  intuitively with the help of 
algarithms try and figure out how they  work and make sense of them. I realized 
recently i was doing all but  the LL purely on intuition without a single alg 
but i was very slow and  didnt do the best moves for each pair. Right now im 
actually trying to  go back and learn those algs w/ Fingertricks and i have 
already lowered  my average. a good sight to check out is 
http://home.comcast.net/~djspazy/rubiks/f2l.html.
  i have actually just switched to friedrick from petrus a few days ago  and im 
actually just as fast on friedrick because petrus doesnt give  algorithms for 
the F2L. when people say it should be intuitive it sure  helps alot to have 
something to figure out than figuring it out on your  own.
  
  Goodluck!

  Yesterday I memorized what I  suppose are "the basic" 17 LL algs, improving 
my cubing quite a bit  from the method I had been using... from what I've 
heard, the next  thing I should do (besides of course practicing and getting 
faster) is  learn how to do F2L. Currently, I do the first and second layers  
seperately, and it usually takes me around a minute or so to do the F2L  
(35/25). (That number is based off of one trial)
     
    I refuse to memorize 41 algorithms. I would be unable to do this  anyways. 
Plus, even if this were a good idea, lots of people have told  me DO NOT TRY TO 
MEMORIZE THOSE, IT SHOULD BE INTUITIVE.. so, i'm going  to try to follow that 
advice :)
     
    Any good guides for F2L? Craig recommended the one at 
http://twistypuzzles.com/solutions/3x3x3-01-step2.shtml  . However, the problem 
with this guide is that the color-scheme on the  cube in the guide is different 
from my cube. But, if you guys agree  that it is a good guide, I could just go 
through and change the  text/pictures, switching around BLUE and YELLOW, thus 
making it match  my cube. (Is that right?)
     
    I want to know if that guide is good, before I take the time to  do that... 
or maybe you guys know of some other good guides... let me  know what you think 
is best. I need to learn intuitive F2L!!
    
  Thanks
    
  David
