I agree with the other guy, there is way more interesting stuff to read than there is time to read it.

I find it helps to really have a goal when setting out to learn new stuff. Rather than just "I want to learn more about blah" Think "I want to make a grid based turn based strategy game" or whatever, and then figure out what you need to learn to make that happen.

I try to do this, I still have lots of interesting unrelated things I try to learn about too, but I find this overarching goal helps focus everything, even if that goal changes every few months and is not always achieved.
