John McCain’s MySpace Creator’s BooBoo
John McCain has a MySpace presence. Me too. Seems whoever put up this for him made at least two egregious errors. First of all they neglected to credit the designer that developed the layout which was used. Second and most importantly they neglected to replace an image in the template they stole used for the site. This caused a call to the designers servers to supply an image and led to the discovery of the hijack.
In return the designer replaced the image on his server with one that declared a political position change. When a visitor came to McCain’s MySpace the code called for the replacement image which would then appear to be a statement from the Senator. The designer is Mike Davidson a co-founder of newsvine.com who has an article with a photo and text of the statement on his blog.
In case you are wondering, yes I did change my MySpace to the layout featured in this post. With the proper attributions and substitutions of course.
