Out of curiosity I took a look at his links, there actually pretty good. Strips out all the crud from articles and gives you some stats on how much smaller it made them.

I don't know how you would shrink this article in particular, but for your standard news site, seems to work quite well.

As an example I fed the mosquito article from earlier into it and got this back. https://trimread.org/articles/437/info

Size went from 3.49 MB to 124 kB, the requests went from 210 to 6 and the load time went from 4.67 sec to 0.26 sec. Pretty good.
