So, I couldn’t help noticing while demonstrating Chrome’s DOM browser thing to my brother, that Google uses a <font size=-2> tag.
I know this is a stupid question, but from a programming point of view–why would they use a deprecated tag on Google? Is it because it’s smaller than using <p class="whatever"> and then creating a style for it, or just going <p style="font-size: x-small">?
Saving a few bytes on the Google homepage likely saves them terabytes of transfer bandwidth.
