Another hole in Blogger to worry about?
Last week there was a suspicious post on Google's official blog saying they had cancelled their "Click-to-call" program — it turns out that someone published the article without permission by exploiting a hole. Google says they fixed the problem with Blogger, but I guess that wasn't enough.
Philipp Lenssen noticed another very strange article posted to the "Blogger Buzz" blog today by someone named spacegirl. The post has since been removed, but here is a copy:
Diary of a Crafty Chica: White Chocolate Sugar Skulls(http://thecraftychica.blogspot.com/2006/10/white-chocolate-sugar-skulls.html)
i love these! it seems so obvious - replace the sugar with something you’d actually eat - but yet, what a surprise.
if i get my act together, i am totally making these for dia de los muertos this year.
sure, i’ll get around to it. along with finishing painting the toy box for my nephew, and doing nanowrimo, which i promised a friend i’d take part in this year (and actually finish the novel i’ve been working on? that would be shocking.) but other than that, i don’t really have many projects - hahahaha!
good thing i subscribed to CRAFT. yeah, right! just got my first one the other day - it’s super cute, and there are wayyy too many projects to keep me over-busy and inspired!

It appears there are more holes to patch up in blogger — let's hope this isn't a weekly occurrence, or Blogger might see a rapid decline in users.
