Optimize the size of your CSS

Reduce the size of your text content, with a special emphasis on the elements that are common to every page on your website such as the JavaScript and the CSS(cascading style sheets). There’s a handy online CSS compressor which offers three levels of CSS compression. I recently discovered it and used it to compress the style sheet of one of our client’s website

original CSS size 4,096 bytes
after removing whitespace 2,821 bytes
after HTTP compression 1,433 bytes

You can do something similar to the JavaScript with this online JavaScript compressor From the original idea of Douglas Crockford.
