Probably a year or so ago someone posted a battery saving trick that was not of the usual variety e.g. turn down the display, turn off unused radios etc. One of them was to turn off automatic stories in the picture app. Would anyone remember or be aware of any other obscure tweak?

I keep Location Services turned off, but I have it in my Quick Settings if I need to toggle it on real quick. Apps like Maps or Glympse will prompt you to turn it back on and take you right to it in Settings, if need be. I think it's helped immensely with my battery performance, not having the phone constantly check for GPS position. I may be screwed if I lose my phone or if it gets stolen but it's an option and risk you can take.
I'm not willing to cripple my system by turning location services off.
