I'm looking through a friend's old blog, and wondering if Blogger is really the worst archival text format ever. I'd hoped to have clean HTML to deal with, but not so.

Instead of paragraphs, I saw . Bold and italic were similarly ill-styled. Random blorts of JavaScript seem to appear anywhere.

It's disappointing to see this terrible markup when it's been so easy to produce clean code for more than a decade. I used to think that WordPress produced bad markup on my regular blog, but all is forgiven after Ctrl+U on a Blogger page…
