The point is that the site will teach you the structures you need to learn in your first two years as a student. From there you can move on to other resources.
While studying Tae Kim, you should be learning kanji at a rate of at least 10 kanji per week. If you do this, you'll know 2000 kanji in two years and have learned everything on his site.
At that point, just start reading articles and asking questions.
(This post, of course, ignores how you should learn to speak and listen.)

Thank you. I guess that's a starting point I can take. I actually can't find any Japanese teachers here that are close enough, so I'll have to do with what I have.
