Hi Lea, I completely agree. Google have somehow developed a blind
spot when it comes to meeting even the basics of current web
standards. As an exercise, I just threw together a valid version of
the Google Search page:
blog entry:

example page:

Hey, cool stuff! :)
I thought about doing that, but decided I didn't have time.
Interestingly, comparing the two pages in
http://www.websiteoptimization.com/services/analyze/
shows the original is *slightly* lighter (but I bet you could beat
that by removing more carriage returns, same as the original)
Hmmm... the javascript isn't there... I wonder if it would add much
weight - I wonder if its reused on other pages.
I don't think the comparision is valid without it. :(
