Right/Down/right/Down with an Up/Right/Down thrown in when stuck has worked well for me. My first 1024 block came that way.
When I began playing I was moving around the board in an unorganized fashion, but am now finding that moving the larger numbers to one corner (bottom-right for me) is the best method. By having your block consolidation take place in one particular area, the odds that you'll have matching large numbers goes up dramatically.

- stevesearer 13y agoI've tried a few games where I do those exact moves with no human judgement and the score ends up quite a bit lower than when I 'generally' follow those moves and consolidate using my best judgement. Another interesting test was to always play a clockwise or counter-clockwise pattern. The consolidation happens in the middle of the board. This method seemed to result in higher scores than the right/down/right/down pattern.
