I recommend racking it into a secondary-preferably a glass fermenter. This allows for the viewing of the beer. If the yeast is active, there will be suspended yeast moving in the beer (let the beer sit a few days and observe).
Those who draw off a pint to take gravity readings every day to see if it changed basically are wasting beer. Thats a bunch of bottles that are not there later. I guess thats OK if you brew on your own and are doing 10 gallons + per batch, but thats just me. My first batch, done from a kit, was racked into a 5 gallon glass carboy we already had lying around, and we never looked back.
