DC's are never fixed and should be adjusted by the DM per situation.
The DCs in the article are the starting point. If you hadn't stopped reading, you would have seen this:

A more specific DC chart:
Characters should almost always succeed: DC 16
Characters should usually succeed: DC 18
Characters should succeed more often than not: DC 20
Character success is 50/50: DC 22
Characters should fail more often than not: DC 24
Characters should usually fail: DC 26
Characters should almost always fail: DC 28
Quote:
And have a party of 6 roll 6 times until someone beats the dc is the same as having one player roll 6 times or more to try and beat the DC..
Except for the different skill bonuses, the opportunity for other players to contribute rather than sit around watching one guy roll six times....

And if you have the time, not in a threat or etc.. you can take 20 on most skills..
Take 20 is not part of the 4E rules.
