another 2D visualisation of the rubiks cube that is popularly used for computer simulation speedsolving is qcube[1]

despite not being able to see all sides of the cube, it's surprisingly easy to solve on, as you essentially see the same stickers that you would in real life.

there is even an IRC based version!
