Why did my laptop's battery life suddenly decrease?

Hello, I have an Acer Aspire One (netbook) and a few days ago its battery life was about 1 hour and 20 minutes. But yesterday and today, the whole battery life suddenly decreased to only 1 hour, if not less. I think its because I left the battery plug on the whole night..?

And are there any things i can do to increase the life of my battery?

    Probably not much you can do. The trouble with all laptop batteries is they have several cells and if one fails, as it can quite suddenly, the performance of the whole battery is impaired. It is possible that regular charge/discharge cycles might help but unlikely. Charging over night shouldn't cause a problem though.
