Friendly blank pages

Just to share some fun…

During one of my recent projects (kuekenfest.de, I'm helping out with the website) I was redirecting a new domain to the HelionWeb server. As soon as the name servers were updated I checked it out and came across the beloved and ugly "404 Not Found" page. Not very friendly and this site really motivates you to dump the URL into the trash bin and never come again.

Therefore I quickly hacked together a nice more friendly Nothing here… yet! page. Not the perfect thing but I think it's some fun reading and it should keep a visitor from adding the URL to it's mental blacklist.
