Justinguitar.com is good. My personal advice, learn on a electric guitar with a small amp. It's strings are closer to the neck and easier to push down, and that is easier on your fingers. You would be surprised how sore your finger muscles can get learning to put that string all the way down, but her I'm no pro just my advice.
If Justin guitar is spelled diff my bad, but that's how I remember it.

http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/ is a pretty good site with a pretty large database of lessons, scales, technique, theory, ect.
I would recommend learning a song. Then learning and memorizing the chords and scales used with in a song. This way you're not only learning chords and scales but you're also seeing ways they can be applied. Of course learning chords and scales by themselves is always good exercise but learning how they're applied or can be applied is even better.

you know what i did in english class? I came to class stoned out of my mind every day, i chugged vodka in the back of class, i put dead fish in the ceiling tiles. i put a gallon of old milk and orange juice in the file cabinet before winter vacation. i brought snakes in a tied up sweater and let them loose during class. i didnt go to school to learn, i went because i had to. i didnt care, and i didn't fucking listen to that stupid bitch. and i still don't fucking care. i tore the pages out of her books and burned them, and threw away all the books in the class, two books per day.

cool. I'm mainly a blues player myself though I've been dabbling more into classically influenced metal. Wish I could finger pick with enough dexterity to play classical. Punched a wall that basically pushed my forth knuckle forward an inch. My ring finger is virtual useless. Been trying to strengthen it but it's been slow going since then.
