14 Most Popular “Sorry” Pages

Even the Best of the Best can have a hard time. Sometimes we come across messages in which either companies like Goggle or MySpace, etc are upgrading their systems or having some technical difficulties, thus displaying a Sorry message to their visitors.

Previously, I blogged about some of the Most creative 404 Error Pages, seen on the web. But in my quest to find more and more creative stuff, I have compiled a list of “Sorry Pages” from some of the most famous websites (Google, MySpace, Flickr, Digg, etc) of today.

1. Twitter

2. YouTube

3. Windows Live

4. Technorati

5. MySpace

6. Flickr

7. Google

8. Digg

9. Reddit

    What about the neopets one?
    Sometimes they have neopets with cute little quotes or an entire page of unique games

    Something tells me you’ve not see the one for Fark. NSFW possibly.

    The one for Stumbel Upon is incredibly patronising, suggesting we gooutside and play like little kiddies if their server is down. There are pics of slides and swings.

    Stumbleupon one is good “Why not go outside and play”

    Interesting article. I really like your blog overall. Really makes me think! Thanks!

    All screens particularly aggravating but apologetic in a sense. Better than “We are working on the syste, GET LOST! :???:

    Or the blue screen.

    I am not sure which one i like more, the one with the puppy, or the one with the lolcatz :)

    Pacman! Any one know if you can really play the game on that sorry page. I hope I get the sorry page just so I can play the game. :smile: That is really cool!

    Very cool Post!

    The myspace is pretty clever. Pacman so it’s not completely a wasted day. Good stuff.
