I love this site's design. It's clean without being empty. The colors are simple and warm. The font is intriguing and readable.
Oh, and the article is good, too. Even if a lot of it may seem obvious, I think many people (myself included) need to be reminded that writing with brevity and emphasis is important for readability.
Anyone interested in a more in-depth consideration of improving your writing style would be well-advised to read "Line by Line: How To Edit Your Own Writing" by Claire Kehrwald Cook. It describes not only common grammatical errors and how to avoid them, but also strategies for condensing your prose (like avoiding the passive voice). It's also a good way to introduce yourself to the language of grammar (voices and tenses and participles, oh my!) If you find yourself writing things like, "Emergency lights flashing, cars pulled aside as the ambulance roared past," this book can help.
