Those resources won't really help you to learn much! Do something that requires an attention span! I have started reading SICP when I have a free hour to goof off. I also have it bookmarked on my phone.
I recently switched from coffee to green tea, and I am amazed at how much more information I can absorb, because my attention span is longer. I actually think it's analogous to the NFL, where rookies aren't any good until "the game slows down for them", well live has slowed down for me!
I have a soft spot for books that I can read on my BlackBerry. SICP, The Art of Unix Programming, Software Engineering for Internet Applications, SQL for Web Nerds, Practical Common Lisp, Dive Into Python, now Simply Scheme.
If only the Handbook of Applied Cryptography had their chapters in HTML.

But no. If that was the title, it would be fraudulent advertising.
