Taking goofy to the extreme, Blippy really lays it on with its lush 404 meadow and its dressed-up-unicorn. "Good thing unicorns are magical," the shopping-sharing site says on its broken link page. Not hugely inventive, but still likely to warm the cockles of your heart.

Where's the hiss?

The Seecoy site would be better (or more annoying -- take your pick) if it had an audio track of white noise.

Gotta love

these (my fav's):

the K International page ... especially this nice little doozy [i]" You were looking for Picnik and got lost "[/i] .. haha!

Gog.com's rip in the space time continuum

Mark Dijkstra's play on the classic "I went here, and all I got was this lousy..."

LEGO's figurines all in a panic over the 404 Error

Foradian's Hypercube zero (in HTML5) .. very impressive

and last but by no means least (..drum roll)

The South Park's 'Royal Pudding' 404 (lmao) ... that one really takes the cake (.. i mean .. pudding).
