This is what I've come up with for posting comments on WordPress 
blogs, without <p> tags and linebreaks. It can probably be written 
more elegantly, but it does what I need. Haven't tried Blogger but 
possibly it works for you as well.

(defun my-org-postprocess-blog-post ()
     "Adapt exported HTML to blogs that get confused by <p> and
newlines."
   (let ((fill-column (point-max))) ; h/t Chris Lowry
     ;; p tags
     (goto-char (point-min))
     (while (re-search-forward "</?p>" nil t)
       (replace-match ""))
     ;; unfill
     (fill-region start end nil) ; with fill-column set really huge
     ;; delete superfluous blank lines (is there a better way?)
     (goto-char (point-min))
     (while (re-search-forward "\n\n+" nil t)
       (previous-line)
       (delete-blank-lines))))

I don't think that's a viable option across platforms.

Yours,
