This is mostly good advice. I disagree only with the first dictum: use only two type styles. I typically use three: one for headlines, one for body text, and one for site navigation. But the rest of the article meets with my agreement, especially the bit about using a sufficiently large type size. And please don't use colour for anything but links: it is really frustrating to click on text you think should be taking you somewhere, but which doesn't.
