PLUG or UNPLUG? Laptop battery

Alright, i am confused. I read and heard so many peoples' recommendation about prolonging the laptop battery, now heres my question,

WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO PROLONG THE AA1's BATTERY, KEEP YOUR LAPTOP PLUGGED EVENTHOUGH YOU HAVE BATTERY POWER OR JUST PLUG IT WHEN NECESSARY?? OR ARE THERE ANY WAYS TO KEEP THE BATTERY LONGER? I know eventually it will die but are there some ways any of you cool people know?

Currently, i charge mine when it reaches around 20-30 percent, i dont let it go really low...

Also, I read on acer manual about BATTERY CONDITIONING. but i dont always believe with what they say LOL..

Help me here, thank you.

i always take my battery out when using ac power. when i'm around the house i have no need to use the battery, so i store the battery in a cool place with a 40% charge. i've come across quite a few guides that say storing li-ion batteries at 0c (or 32f) at 40-60% charge capacity will reduce the capacity by only 2% per year. heat is the battery's enemy, so the cooler you can keep it the longer it'll last, e.g. the refrigerator.
