Actually, I kind of don't agree with the last bit - for the reason that with the myriad of trivially different "methods", each with their own silly acronymn, it's more confusing than anything.

I'd advise you read up on WILD, DILD, MILD, dream journalling, and dream signs and reality checks. Anything else is sort of more harm than good and confusing until you've got the basics worked out. Also, most of the methods are just ways that people describe how THEY do the more conventional techniques.
