I would also add participating in public forums dedicated to the programming 
language, such as comp.lang.c, and also forums dedicated to specific 
platforms, such as comp.unix.programmer.  Getting our hands dirty may be the 
best learning experience that we can have, but being exposed to the 
experiences that others had/are having will also contributes greatly to our 
own progress.  

Plus, when we stumble on a problem we might benefit from having a community 
willing to help us out on it.  Conversely, we may help others with their 
problems, and in the process learn a bit more from it.

In short, we may do all our learning alone, but being a part of a community 
dedicated to a specific subject also helps a lot.
