I have to say, it does give me an idea on how to work on my future posts. As I have a deep passion for writing, I intend to make each of my piece worth reading. For that to happen, I need to, like you have emphasized, eliminate clutter. I still find it a challenge to write precisely and interestingly but I'll keep on trying though. By the way, the idea of The Best of Copyblogger 2009 is beneficial especially for readers who have only recently "tuned in" to this blog. It helps us catch up on whatever we have missed. Thanks again. Cheers! That’s a post well-written. I have to say, it does give me an idea on how to work on my future posts.

After I handed him my rewrite he said, "You didn't do very much." "Wrong," I replied. "You see all that white space on the page? I did that."
