blank page

About 2 years ago I found out that you could have a blank page as your homepage on Internet Explorer (or any web browser). I thought it was incredibly cool, I like the way it says about:blank and so on.

But it has drawbacks - you can't tell if you're connected to the Internet for example.

So I did a search for a "blank page" to use as my homepage (weird I know), and found loads of good ones, in particular ones that say "this page intentionally left blank" which harks back to the days of publishing (I didn't know this). There is a nice site which explains the phenomenon here.

I was so inspired I made my own blank page to use which you can see here. I thought for a while - should I make it red? Should it have a logo or a back button? What do you guys think?
