Fake post on the Google blog over the weekend

I thought this was kind of funny news about Google’s Click-to-call service. A hacker made an illegal post to the Official Google Blog.

About that fake post

By A Googler

Posted by Karen Wickre, Google Blog team

A bug in Blogger enabled an unauthorized user to make a fake post on the Google Blog last night, claiming that we've discontinued our AdWords click-to-call test. The bug was fixed quickly and the post removed. As for the click-to-call test, it is progressing on schedule, and we're pleased with the results thus far.

And the post which caused the controversy:

Google Click-to-Call project cancelled

By Maximal

After concientiously considering, Google has decided not to continue with Google Click-to-call project. The project has been in the media on last days because of the notice of Google agreement with e-Bay. We finally consider click-to-call agreement with e-Bay a monopolistic aproach that would damage small companies in the CRM area.

This message has been translated using Google language tools.

Just once I would like to see a hacker use proper spelling, punctuation and grammar.
