Really interesting but I hope this doesn't become popular and appear in every site. A few comments:

* Wave2 is broken in Chrome (in Windows)

* The title should change, it's always "I'm sorry".

* I'd prefer that this doesn't destroy the history / back button.

* Add a stop button / link.

* I like the diy. Can I send one to my friends?

bar har har! Serious LOLs were had after playing around here using Google Chrome then viewing history later to find something else.. 10 pages of Chrome History telling me 'I'm Sorry' because Chrome Records Every URL Change To History!

Well played with project... and the I'm sorry page title.

very impressive, but it feeds history so much, and breaks back forwards buttons

exactly! for this reason, this can't be used for production.
