What is the best way to learn how to play guitar other than in person lessons?

I honestly have only been playing guitar for about 6 months, but compared to my friend that has been playing, and taking lessons for about 2 years, I'm just as good has him.
To tune, I do normally use a tuner, it came with my guitar, but sometimes I have to re tune it on my own since I have a bad one.
And, to help you more, play songs that you like, my friend said he didn't like that he couldn't play he style of music when he was taking lessons, and got frustrated, so I would try to stay clear from something that you dislike.

A chord chart
http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/
They have some amazing tabs out there, try to go to the ones that have 4-5 stars.

Here is how you read the tabs.
You could also try youtube, to learn anything extra that you are having trouble with.
Good luck!

Here is a site to learn how to read tab. http://guitar.about.com/od/tabchordslyrics/ss/read_guitar_tab.htm
After you learn to read tab search for tabs on 911tabs and wa-lah. It will take some time and practice to get the fingering down, but it will come with time. Also, listen to the actual song to get the timing and rhythm down. Or look for someone on youtube playing it and that will help a lot as well.
Also, get a chord chart and practice grabbing those chords and practice from going from a "A" to a "G" to a "C" to a "D" and mix that up.

M$Also, "guitar for dummies" is an invaluable book if you're a beginner.
