If you go to UF at park opening, tour in a counter-clockwise direction. Everyone else seems to go clockwise and you'll have the place to yourself for the morning. Awesome picture taking opportunities!
Here are some tips that I found at various sites. Please bear in mind that I've not yet been to USF/IOA so I don't know if all of these things are still in existence, or even what some of the surprises are, but perhaps others that know the parks well can chime in.
Production Central-
Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit- You have the opportunity to select a song for your ride. If you hold the Rip Ride Rockit logo down for 10 seconds, there are hidden bonus tracks to choose from.
Shrek's Ye Olde Souvenir Shoppe- Check out the mirror behind the cashier.
New York
Revenge of the Mummy- Macraven mentioned that some of the things posted about Mummy are no longer valid, so I don't know if this is still there but, in the Tomb of Imhotep, there was a scarab beetle. If you pressed it while it glowed blue, it would let out a blast of air on people further down the line and you could watch their reaction on video camera.
Also, there is a small rectangular chamber in the tomb portion of the queue. To the right, as you enter, there is a hole with treasure. Try to grab it.
World Expo
Men In Black- In the queue, once you are past the elevators, jiggle any of the door handles and you'll get a surprise.
Kwik-E-Mart- There's a phone on the wall outside the store. Pick up the receiver and listen.
Seuss Landing
If I Ran The Zoo- near the exit there is a creature that is quarantined beneath the ground. There is a plaque there that explains why the creature is quarantined. Walk on the plaque and circle it for a surprise.
Snookers & Snookers Sweet Candy Cookers- there are Sneetch footprints outside the shop. Step on the one closest to the front of the store for a special message.
Sneetch Beach- its alongside the lagoon, off the shortcut to WWoHP. The radio on the beech plays news reports and music.
WWoHP
The Three Broomsticks- When you are facing the front of it, go to your left; there is a walkway and a window that displays a bunch of dishes. You can hear the dishes clattering and being cleaned.
If you eat here, from time to time youll see the shadows of house elves and delivery owls at work on the walls.
Hogs Head- stand by the staircase, where you can hear a maid complaining from above.
Zonkos Joke Shop- try eavesdropping on the Extendable Ears that dangle from the ceiling near the sales register.
Jurassic Park
Camp Jurassic- The dinosaur footprints roar if you stand on them.
Toon Lagoon
Gasoline Alley- the oil cans spring leaks of water and the tires leak air.

This one is true. But it's more fun if you know what track number to push. Here's a link to the track numbers: http://attractionsmagazine.com/blog/2009/08/20/hidden-songs-confirmed-on-rip-ride-rockit-coaster/

Also in the WWOHP, in both the men and women's restrooms, you can sometimes hear Moaning Myrtle.
Just wanted to bump this a little! Really want some more, up to date, secrets for when I go in a month!
it would be great if you started a new thread.
this one has many outdated items listed in it.
the darkside has really grown and changed since this thread started 9 years ago in sept 2005.
Okay! So, I have! But it probably won't get as good as this one disboards.com/showthread.php?t=3305595
