I didn't try yours, but I found many similar functions and sent them out
last night. I'm hoping they did not get missed! It looks like many have
written functions to do just what Samuel is looking for
(unfill-region/paragraph). Here is the code again which worked like so:

- write a bunch of stuff and highlight it
- M-x unfill-region (command provided by the code below)
- C-u C-c C-e R
- M-< C-space M-> M-w
- Paste in blogger box

From http://blog.bookworm.at/2007/08/emacs-unfill-region.html:

And several links with additional very similar looking code:
