I do a full cycle of the battery every month from 100-0, then a full charge without unplugging.
Normally I try to use the battery down to 50%-30% then recharge.
Long term storage of Li-ions should be kept at 50% to avoid the loss of max charge on the high end and the inability to revive on the low end.
Overall it's been working really well for me. My 2009 MBP still lasts for a good 3.5-4 hours on the original battery.
