With CMS-driven layouts in particular, having an uncontrolled amount of text can become a problem. If a client makes an extra long title in that blog post, it just breaks everything.
Fortunately, there are a range of solutions to this, everything from character and word-counts limits using Javascript, to line-length limits
This is Sygnal's favorite approach, because it ensures that the maximum amount of text is shown, up to a maximum number of lines. If it exceeds that, it is truncated with ellipses.
We like this solution so much that we've embedded it into SA5's HTML Library.
In some cases, you may want a JS-based approach to limit the number of characters or words instead.
