Kit Kat, Nestlé’s popular chocolate brand, has taken its tagline of “Have a break, have a Kit Kat” to an exquisite extreme. If having a [yummy Kit Kat break](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/decaf-billboard) is to be taken for real, even websites should follow suit, right? So what better than to create ‘The First Worldwide Website Where Nothing Happens’?

Magnificently conceived by JWT, the website starts with a black screen; while the site is loading, all of the responsibilities of our day-to-day lives are flashed in sequence. Then, a plain white screen with big red letters instructs the user to take a break, a sweet, [chocolate flavored](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kitkat-nescaf) *dolce fare niente*.

The company alerts that if by any chance anything should happens at the website, to report it.
