If they're still interviewing other canidates you want to wait a few days before you call. you can send a follow up email thanking them for their time and reflect on the interview (shows you were paying attention and actually interested in the job). What I mean is if they asked you any questions you found interesting, you can say that in the email and tell them how it had you thinking after you went home and found it interesting blah, blah, blah...

You generally want to wait a few days until they forget who you were and use the follow up call as a reminder.

Generally, don't call back unless they said you'd hear something by a certain time and you don't hear anything. If they didn't give a time frame you should have asked for one

but wait a reasonable amount of time for them to interview some more people and maybe then contact back.

I agree.

You can, however, follow up quickly with a "thank you for interviewing me" letter. That shows interest and professionalism.
