I want to start with the site that is, in my opinion, the most important for jewelers in any media and that is the Ganoksin website.
Tips From the Jewelers Bench http://www.ganoksin.com/borisat/tip_sear.htm
Bench Tube http://www.ganoksin.com/benchtube/
YouTube is always an option - go to http://youtube.com and search terms for your particular jewelry field (ie. wire wrapping, right angle weave, RAW, beading, soldering, etc)
