When a site doesn’t work on the web, you often see a bland 404 error page like this: …though some sites have a bit of style and have fun with “errors” And this one most of you may have seen before. Can ya guess it? (You can find forty more great 404s here, and sixty more here) I’ve yet to hear of a Edulang user report a 404, which is certainly something we can be proud of!
