All laptop/notebook batteries, regardless of technology, will give their best when "exercised".

The absolute worst thing you can do for battery life is leave the battery on charge constantly. E.G. running from mains all the time. I might add that if this were a Lead/acid battery then a constant float would actually be the best thing you could do, but it is not that technology so those rules do not apply.

Another possible issue is that many notebooks won't start unless there is a battery present. Toshi's seem to have more models with this "feature" than other manufacturers.

For storage of the battery, charge it fully first. Again, this is for maintaning battery life rather than having a charged battery in a month or so as you probably won't have much charge left.

You're only paranoid if you're wrong!
