Every so often it is only right that the internet teaches us something practical. While learning about the secret history of George Washington or how to woo a significant other with a present she will never forget, can be useful — I find that often my tastes drift to the more pragmatic.

Enter VideoJug which attempts to leverage the power of social video and combine it with the How To. The site provides your usual user submitted How To guides with subjects ranging from the ridiculous (How To Give A Man to Man Hug) to the sublime (How To Perform The Perfect Golf Swing). It contains everything you’d expect from a social video service as well as text transcripts of the guides themselves.

While VideoJug is not going to make you a genius, it is a step up from watching the latest YouTube Karaoke video, if only sometimes by a fraction.
