Harmonica - self directed learning - the how

I gave the idea a lot of thought. What new skill, knowledge, set of behaviours could I learn through appropriate use of technology when I already have a busy life. I considered the opportunities I had to learn - times of day, duration, opportunities and was left with the thought it has to be flexible and it must be possible to dip in and out of learning when the opportunity arises.

To explore this experience I decided to take on something I had no knowledge and experience of. - Music.

I think i can sing (at least accompany others on the radio or CD's etc) but those who hear me know the truth - Music is an area I can safely say i have no experience or aptitude for. So I decided to give it a go.
What to learn - considering some of my criteria for access - the drums were out, a guitar is a bit cumbersome - ahh the harmonica!!
