Default Fuel economy tips for a new owner of an 06 Civic Hybrid ????

I was wondering:

I've read on here numerous topics about "hypermiling" or whatever techniques you found for getting better fuel economy out of a Civic Hybrid. But all the info was too scattered. I just bought mine last night, and I drove it home from Sacramento to L.A. (where I live), and I averaged 46 mpg for the trip. Pretty good considering I didn't use much of the Cruise Control. But I was wondering, what are some of the techniques to get BETTER fuel mileage ???? I don't really understand all of this stuff about the hypermiling and what not, so I was hoping someone could explain some of them to me so I can try them out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
