404

Definition (from w3.org): 404 Not Found The server has not found anything matching the Request-URI. No indication is given of whether the condition is temporary or permanent. The 410 (Gone) status code SHOULD be used if the server knows, through some internally configurable mechanism, that an old resource is permanently unavailable and has no forwarding address. This status code is commonly used when the server does not wish to reveal exactly why the request has been refused, or when no other response is applicable.

Definition (from definethat.com): [the HTTP error "file not found on server"] Extended to humans to convey that the subject has no idea or no clue -- sapience not found.

Definition (from The Doors):

You're lost little girl
You're lost little girl
You're lost
Tell me who
Are you?

What to Do If You Get a 404 (from whatis.techtarget.com): If the site no longer exists, there's nothing you can do. However, it only takes one mistyped character to result in a 404. See whether the ".htm" should be an ".html" or vice versa. If you're linking from a Web site, you can do a "View source" to make sure it wasn't miscoded. Whether or not it is, you may want to send a note to the Webmaster so that the link can be fixed for the next users.

The web page you were looking for wasn't found. Please take a look at the menu at the top of the page and see if you can find what you were looking for.
