I just thought of something else I always do. I came to Android with the OG Droid from Blackberry, so I was in the habit of ALWAYS properly exiting out of programs. Blackberry would crash and burn if too many apps were left open. So I always do this on my Droids as well. I rarely ever use the home button. I back out of everything, so nothing is left running. It may not be a necessity, but I do it.
It's really not necessary. Backing out of apps doesn't keep them from running in the background. A lot of times they're running from boot up, and I'm taking about apps that have no business running at startup.
