MeepMe Gets Offended, Hacks 34st.com Poll
Some weird things happened today to a seemingly trivial Highbrow poll on 34st.com. First, within a few hours there were over 1,000 votes for who is having the “Worst Week Ever,” curiously skewed for each of the three options besides MeepMe, the “flirting app” run by this guy. Then there were 33,000 votes and change, 11k each for, again, every other choice but MeepMe. To top it all off, the vast majority of said votes were from a random location in Stuart, Florida. Which, you know, seems to be where the MeepMe server is located.
Perhaps it goes without saying, but we think maybe you MeepMe folk could use your technical expertise for something better than hacking meaningless internet polls. Like making MeepMe not suck so much.

Amazing: http://34st.com/2009/02/campus-cred-dj-newby/ (no homo)
Sounds like somebody wasn’t happy with how few Meeps they got this weekend.
I mean, whats more embarrassing. Hacking a word press plugin for shits and giggles, or religiously writing for the upenn gossip blog.
“religiously writing for?” she’s the managing editor, idiot.
more cheese with that whine? sounds like UTB/34th St. is the one that’s offended.
pranking a website = messing around
writing a column complaining about said prank = closer to being “offended”
Is this article necessary? Maybe not. But does Meepme suck? Yes. Yes it does.
