Month of MySpace Bugs: April Fools?

by Joris Evers

On April 1 a new bug campaign is set to kick off--or is it?

The "Month of Myspace Bugs, Yuss!" was announced last week on a Live Journal blog. The site states the project is being run by two individuals, using the handles "Mondo Armando" and "Mustaschio."

The pair says they will post flaws found in the MySpace Web site. But they "don't intend to have too many 'real' bugs," according to the blog. Instead they plan to post "silly" Web errors such as cross-site scripting flaws.

It appears that the effort is meant mostly to poke fun at the previous "Month of" campaigns that focused on browser, Apple and kernel bugs. "Months of Bugs are whiny, attention-seeking ploys for acceptance," "Mondo Armando" and "Mustaschio" wrote.

Oh, when is the MySpace campaign starting?

"Were you not paying attention? April 1, 2007. Yes, we know. No, it's serious. No, not really."
