When you double tap the home button and the apps all appear, hold one of the apps down until they wiggle, and a red bar will appear click it til all your apps are gone. This closes them- otherwise they are still running and killing your battery.

I didn't know most of these things, I haven't had my iPod for too long. And I've never used an iPod touch before. Oh and by looking at some of the previous comments you can clearly see that some of the other tricks weren't known either.
