Your D60 has a cool feature. It has not only the green focus blob that wulf mentioned, but an even more precise focus indicator. When you're in manual focus mode, the exposure indicator bar (looks like |..|..0..|..| in the camera) turns into a focus fine-tuning indicator. As you focus, you'll see bars go back and forth. Your goal is to get them to 0 (when the focus dot will light up, as mentioned above).
I'm not sure if this is a setting you have to adjust, but I'm pretty sure it just works that way out of the box. You'll have to be turning the lens's focus ring to see any change, of course -- otherwise the exposure bar stays as an exposure bar.
