While Li-ion batteries don't have "memory" the way that NiCads do, the life expectancy of all rechargeable batteries is measured in "discharge cycles". The more often you discharge and recharge them, the sooner they will lose the capacity to hold a charge.

So it's still a good idea to charge your batteries only when they need it. This may not always be practical, but it's the best way to extend battery life.
