I clicked through thinking this would be about balance, spacing, typography, information heirachy and colour. An understanding of these basics will give you a much better starting point than css3, background textures and webfonts. There's a damn good article on this somewhere if anybody knows the place...

People spend years learning the subjects. I much prefer a practical post such as this, which delivers on what it claims. The site she ended up with was much better than half-decent. Anyway, I have a huge difficulty imagining any blog post about, let's say, typography that does more good than harm in terms of what it teaches people about design. Worrying about anything more than sans vs serif will probably just waste their time.
