I want to start learning german. I wonder, Are there any online resources do you recommend?

I hope that you can recommend a book or two to start studying from. So are there any good texts  ? Are there any good websites to start with? I think that at the beginning I need the basic vocabulary and basic grammer. From where can I learn those things  ?

In particular  , Do you recommend Pimsleur's course  ? What about Rosetta stone's course  ?

Thank you in advance.
