At a search engine, you have to write your code to process all that randomness and return the best documents. By the way, that’s why we don’t penalize sites if they have syntax errors or don’t validate — sometimes the best document isn’t well-formed or has a syntax error.

In fact, if you are reviewing most sites they are just a tool to get information out there. They aren't setup or maintained by people who care about "code" - they're just communication tools.

Good to see that Google still has it's eye on "content" and not "form".
