    In Hungary even a plain 404 page is very rare. We always make one for every website we prepare. But after looking at this marvellous collection, well, we have to do something better.:))))

    Hi, I like the article and the list that I liked is following, I think we don’t have to show “404″ word to user but it’s more better to show “Page not found” can be understandable and the following ideas is better then error page.

    YouCastr
    Club Penguin
    Suspended Animations
    Center’d!
    Mixx
    Hornets247

    sorry for English :)
