The Point of No Return


I must apologise for the rather large spaces between the paragraphs in the last post, and possible this one as well and probably future ones as well. I tried to remove the pointless 'div' tags and replace them with 'p' tags but to no avail. Those of you who have no idea what I'm on about, never mind. Move along, there's nothing to see here except a large amout of space between paragraphs.


Despite the 'new' and 'improved' Blogger coming out of Beta there still seems to be loads of problems, and 'extra' carriage returns seem to be one of them.


But never mind, I found an extremely helpful explanation in 'Blogger Known Issues' section which reads....


There are general formatting issues in various places throughout the application. These are mostly just cosmetic and nothing to worry about in terms of functionality.


Well, that's ok then isn't it?


I think what they really mean to say is this:


There's lots of problems in lots of places. These problems make you look like you don't know how to format your writing properly. Maybe we shouldn't have moved out of Beta so soon, but well, we wanted to open the champagne a bit early. Oh, but don't worry....everything still works. Honest.


I really do hope the BloggerGods pull their finger out soon and solves these 'formatting issues' soon. I like Blogger for its ease of use but am not so stupid that I wouldn't be able to set up something in Typepad or LiveJournal in a few minutes if I wanted to.


Grrr.
