Question:What is the best way to clear out space?

My Powerbook recently started alerting me that my start-up disk was almost full! Scared me! I got rid of some downloads and old word documents I didn't need. I also didn't realize that there are many "Trash" areas on your computer that need to be "emptied," otherwise they are still taking up the same amount of space. (Like in iPhoto) Any other ways to clean up a bit?
