I haven't had time to explore the web site.  It probably includes those sites that are like the red light district, dangerous to you because they teach you the wrong things, but there are some good web sites in there.
Be careful, don't stray too far from the method of "listen to the sound" and learn that the "sound" is the character (letter, number, punctuation) - don't learn dot and dash, point and line, don't translate or make a chart, if it's two dots, go this way, that's all nonsense.
There is no substitute for ears listening to Morse and I  believe (at first) your hand sending with a straight key, learn to feel the rhythm.
Go exploring, see what you can find that's good.  There's lots out there.
Report back with the good list and maybe PA0WV will make that short list for his newsletter about Morse.

Very good, Dave, but PLEASE add your comment that based on your lifetime 
expericience and insight  the majority of those links  are pavement  of 
the way to hell.
