How often do you take time to "play" with new technologies? When you do learn new things, is it more often on the job, when you're under the gun, or do you learn more often at home, on your own time? Are there certain techniques that help you tackle a new technology? Tell us in the talk.editors.devx discussion group.
When we told our readers what technologies they needed to learn, they told us: easier said than done. While that's true, there is an approach to learning that can make it easier. With the right attitude and some essential resources, you'll be on your way—slowly but surely.

recently wrote an editorial in which I listed my personal picks for the 10 most important technologies for developers to know. At the end of that editorial, I asked readers for their input: What did I miss? Where would readers place the technologies in relative importance?
I received a lot of e-mail in response to that editorial, but surprisingly few respondents wanted to debate my choices; instead, many notes simply asked 'how do I learn all those things?'.
