   Custom 404 page. (GitHub Pages version)

   This will provide a last-ditch protection against broken links for actual users.
   However, search engines won't recognize it as a redirect. Hence why index.html is necessary.

   IMPORTANT: You should also activate your old site in Yahoo and Google Webmaster Tools.
     That will allow you to file a change of address notification in their search indexes
     for all pages within your domain.
