If you find that some of your favorite YouTube videos are HowTo’s, then you should check out 5min.com, a video sharing site dedicated to short tutorials.
The vision behind 5min is a very simple one: any solution can be visually explained in no more than 5 minutes. Our aim is to create the first communal Life Videopedia allowing users from all over the globe to contribute their knowledge by sharing visual guides covering arts, business, fashion, sports, health, tech, food, and much more.
5min works because of the time restriction and categorization. Tagging, embedding and voting are features also.
Also check out VideoJug and About.com’s video section.

5min definitely has a lot of content. But other sites have higher-quality video. Monkeysee.com seems to have the highest quality how-to videos with the most helpful content.
