Ngồi lọ mọ surf net, đang mệt mỏi vì mấy cái tô píc về Web 2.0 tiếng Việt thì bắt gặp được cái site:
http://royal.pingdom.com/2008/12/02/24-fun-and-inspiring-web-20-error-pages/
Nhiều ý tưởng hay phết. Phải nói thế nào nhỉ? Nói theo kiểu sính tây thì “Đến ngắm cái nhà xí của nó còn nhiều cảm hứng hơn …” lolz! Mà đúng thế thật, xăm soi mấy cái nhà xí này cảm nhận được khá nhiều không khí Web 2.0!
The fun (or very strange) ones
YouTube
YouTube is known for being one of the services that have truly charming error pages, in lots of varieties.
Update: It turns out that the above page is actually not an official YouTube error page but a satirical take done by Brendan McGetrick. It’s still a great example, though, so we’ll leave it in here. 
Mixx
This one is brilliant. Not only do they entertain the user, they manage to do some branding in the process.
Twitter
Twitter’s most (in)famous error mascot is the Fail Whale, but their error pages show more diversity than that. This is another (quite trippy) example.
Yahoo Mail
We like the touch with “rest assured the alarms are blaring in the basement.”
Flickr
This has to be one of the most original error pages we have seen. Flickr turned it into a competition! Talk about distracting the user in a smart way.
Orkut
While not visually exciting, the error message is a classic.
Myspace
During one of its biggest service outages ever, MySpace did a brilliant thing: they put up a page with a playable Pacman game to keep people entertained.
Stumbleupon
We don’t want to go outside… It’s RAINING. (We’re in Sweden.)
Reddit
When all else fails, blame the Large Hadron Collider. 
Ning
Showing pictures of your tech staff is always a great idea. Especially if they are fluffy animals.
The to-the-point ones
Typepad
The error page is simple and to the point, but what is brilliant here is the second page below. It’s not an error page, but was set up after Typepad had experienced problems, letting users choose their own compensation. We wonder which option turned out to be the most popular? (If anyone from Six Apart is reading this, care to share that information with us?)
Hulu
Hulu has clearly opted for keeping things simple.
Linkedin
Linkedin always brightens up their maintenance pages with their magician/gnome/elf (what IS that?), yet the message is professional and to the point.
Facebook
Another example of keeping things really simple. Perhaps a bit too simple.
Amazon
When money is involved, it might be best to avoid jokes.
Wikipedia
Wikipedia takes a very international approach… “Error” in 10+ languages.
Digg
This is another classic error/maintenance page. Tipping the visitors about other cool sites in the meantime is a pretty neat thing.
Blogger
Google’s Blogger service has a simple and to-the-point error message.
Netflix
Paying services may do well to stay away from jokes. Here is a nice example from Netflix (another one from Amazon above).
Mozilla
Polite and to the point, and visually pleasing.
Technorati
We didn’t include the famous “oops, the technorati monster escaped” error message, but instead this maintenance page.
