You shouldn't have to close apps, though. When you bounce out of them with the home button, they aren't still running in the background. They're paused. When you return to them, they're restored from the paused state. They shouldn't take up memory or processing power. They can run background tasks, but that's a separate situation, and doesn't involve the entire app being active.
So, you still don't need to worry about remembering to close a program when you're finished with it. Just press home.

You just double-click the home button. Cool!
