404's need to be somewhat jarring, because the user needs to see a difference between a normal and an error page. Having "did you mean" suggestions would still be useful, though.
- bmalicoat 17y agoEh, they could at least use their current logo and make it link back to google.com when clicked.
- ugh 17y agoThe logo they use never even was their logo. It plain old Times Bold with different colors applied. And they use tables for the layout. There is no image on this page, it’s all just a pretty small html file (1,359 bytes).
- mortenjorck 17y agoIn a situation such as this where there really can't be more than one interpretation of user intent, I would still redirect to the maps page but display a Twitter or Posterous-style animated message div at the top. The user then knows they made an error, and that it was corrected for them.
