I saw the snippet after I wrote this -- thanks! I also made that more
active, with a call-to-action (such as "Learn how to," "Read about,"
etc.). Let me know if some of the changes I made make sense. The
passive/active part takes some practice, it's not always easy. In
fact, I couldn't get that to go "green" without goofing the text up
too much. As i said, the article was a good one so these are all just
fine-tuning.
