I'm using the Getting Things Done methodology for exactly this. You'll be entering it as any other goal you want to achive, split it down in smaller tasks and (most important) regulary review your list and decide what to do next ( to postpoem it, start with the first task, break it down to smaller tasks, …). In the end it will be your belly deciding (it will takeover no matter what system you'll be using) and you have a nice overview of what to do for your new technology goal.
