I believe a floating anchor point is one where the draw hand does not make contact with anything. i.e. you do not draw to the jaw, ear or pap. With a 24 inch draw this makes sense I suppose.
If you can't find anything with googlefu regarding shooting technique, I reckon the best way to find out is try it yourself. As long as you are consistent with your full draw you should be able to be consistent with accuracy in time.

How you use it is going to depend greatly on what you're using, exactly. A Mongol bow is going to be used differently from a paddle bow, which will be different from a Euro hunting bow, which will be different from an Egyptian angular bow, etc, etc, etc.
Boorman has it right on the "floating anchor point" bit. Usually it means the draw ends In Front of your nose. Not so much for horse bows, though.

Depends on what you want. From what I hear, Turkish Short/Composite bows had extremely good effeciency in terms of traditional bows, due to the length and the geometry. I'm currently waiting for one from Grozer 80# at 28', though I need to pick up a thumb ring to draw it properly.
