title: Why does the Google homepage use deprecated HTML (ie. is not valid HTML5)?
body: <p>I was looking at the <code>www.google.com</code> in Firebug and noticed something odd: The Google logo is centered using a center tag.</p>
  
  <p>So I went and checked the page with the <a href="http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http://www.google.com/&amp;charset=(detect+automatically)&amp;doctype=Inline&amp;group=0" rel="noreferrer">W3C validator</a> and it found 48 errors. Now, I know there are times when you can't make a page valid, especially when we're talking about something like <code>www.google.com</code> and you want it to be as small as possible, but can someone please explain why they use the center tag? </p>
