Agreed. I bookmarked the original article, but haven’t gone through it yet. The lessons are certainly valuable and good advice toward improving your writing.

I think that people could take a lesson from the article and apply it to their blog commentary, to avoid vapid and empty statements that are devoid of any real meaning.

You may want to change your link to the "How to Say Nothing in 500 Words or Less" article, the original article is no longer at that location this post says it is. This is a common problem we find in SEO, and I recently wrote about it on our blog, which you may find interesting, and also includes an updated link to this great article.   Portland Search Engine Marketing Blog
