Postgres TOTD: Use the 'END' as a shortcut for context-sensitive COMMIT or ROLLBACK.
Postgres TOTD: VACUUM FULL and REINDEX do heavy locking, but with autovacuum you should rarely need them.
Postgres TOTD: Logging can go through syslog: control the facility and ident via postgresql.conf.
Postgres TOTD: Postgres 8.4 has a backwards-compatible psql, including backslash commands (finally!)
Postgres TOTD: A table can be physically reordered based on an index with the CLUSTER command. http://tr.im/sI5d

Postgres TOTD: Make sure you run a global ANALYZE after restoring a database or any other large data import.

Postgres TOTD: Starting in PostgreSQL version 8.4, you can use ON TRUNCATE triggers. http://tr.im/nQ7I
Postgres TOTD: One of the many languages available for PostgreSQL functions is LOLCODE. http://tr.im/nAjS (YA RLY!)
