Buzzoo

I recently submitted a video to digg. It’s nothing serious, but it’s seriously funny :). It’s about some Bulgarian idol wannabe that’s singing an English song in Bulgarian. You’ve got to see it.

To my surprised, as I submitted my story, the title got chopped of. It was supposed to be:

Mariah Carey’s “Ken Lee”, a new idol favorite

However, digg chopped it off to be just:

Mariah Carey’s

I know digg engineers are not strangers to the sanitizing html and sql problems. I think the issue rose from the fact that I used both single quote and double quote in the title.

It’s just a little reminder how difficult (because it’s easy to overlook) these issues are. It really turn out to be a very serious problem, as described in Exploid of a mom.
