You should go to the page referenced in the link and read the comments. There are some coders chime who feel differently. I can see some of the system processes needing to run in the background, but when I leave something like say Holdem Poker it really ought to shut down. I agree whole heartedly with the comment that devs need to include an exit option in the apps that they turn out. I am new to android, understand the concepts in the original article, but someone is still going to have to sell me on why having a bunch of useless crap loaded into memory all the time doesn't adversely affect battery life.
