One strategy you can use in limit poker is to reduce the amount of money going into the pot by checking. If you are aware that a player is aggressive, play before that player, and want to limit your pot commitment until you see the turn or river, checking forces the other player to bet a smaller amount than s/he would probably like to bet.

I've found this to be very useful when playing low limit, but it's only a small part of the strategy differences, I'm sure.
