The best way to learn, I have found, is to think of a project that means something to YOU. You're more likely to actually learn from a project of your own choosing than from one supplied to you by someone else.

You could do little things that could make life a bit easier for yourself:
Code a movie / music database
Create a website that combines a group of your favorite RSS feeds and extracts a specified number of entries for display
etc.

Once you have done some simple tasks such as this, start moving on to more complex uses.

Hope that helps.
