Collin Cunningham in one of his video tutorials on soldering SMD (search for his name and/or Make Magazine and/or Jameco Electronics on Youtube) suggests pinching off a teeny-tiny little dot of plasti-tack and using that to hold the piece in place before beginning soldering. I've never tried soldering SMD, but I thought that was a neat trick.
