What seems to work best for me is answering other peoples questions! Often that involves installing a module I've not used before and reading the documentation a little. That exposes me to new ways of doing things and new things to do.
Occasionally that even works in answering my own questions! In one or two cases the best answers I got (for me anyway - YMMV) I wrote myself after reading some initial relies. :-D Sometimes I go back and re-read them to remind myself how do solve a particular problem, or re-read snippets or CUFP's for the same reason. Super Search is a nice augmentation to the index I keep in my head.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
