As some of y'all know I tweet security news like it's an addiction. For the most part infosec news is redundant and generally uninteresting. Breach, breach O look another breach something about flash ah hey look shity passwords and defacements (Still waiting for a interactive astroids game HTML5 defacement) but I digress. 

Witty 404 pages have been around for awhile... http://mashable.com/2012/04/04/funny-404-error-messages/ for instance. But I ran across what is in my mind the defacto best use of a 404 page ever! 


"Across the European Union, thousands of children go missing every year. Thanks to the NotFound project, you can make a difference. Install our application and a picture of a missing child automatically gets published on every ‘page not found’ of your website. Together, we can find them."

The U.S. needs this available yesterday. Any how I know It's not really infosec related but as a person who had a ruff childhood I can't help but try and spread this around. If y'all could mention it on the show sometimes I personally would be appreciative. 

Thanks.

A brilliant use for a 404.
