When I lived in a stuffy apartment we used to put the fan in the window facing out instead of in - for some reason it felt cooler sucking the air out of the room than blowing on us.

As the temps start rising outdoors I walk around my home closing the windows most of the way and pulling shades down. Sure my house is like a cave indoors but it's a nice cool cave that's usually at least 10º cooler than outside. Ceiling fans keep the air moving. ;) On really warm days I have windows open at night and when I get up the house is nice and cool.
