It was probably the background image loading. If so, I got the same thing. No secret there, just the site downloading

GULP!!!
Glad you spotted this first Mexicola. Couldnt have happened to a nicer bloke. Oh and yes, GET IN You BASSA!!!! This is it lads n lassess. First of March ends with some good news - albeit no actual news other than a black hole void that sucks in light and energy and everyone on here is going to have a crafty peek at that saucy little black number several times a day. Some of you perverts are even going to whack one out during the night as well!!!

Here I was on twoism thinking "oh here we go again, Im going to go on the "Boards of Canada" section and see nothing exiting, no news, just sadness." Now I think my mind just pooed a little.

Yeah I get the same thing too. I don't think it's anything special. I was hoping it would flash a subliminal message at me or something but it's just white.
[The insides of these brackets are filled with my celebration of new BoC music but I refuse to unleash them from outside the brackets until I see an album title and/or some cover art. The only thing I will let outside of this is a period so that the end of my statement is grammatically correct]. OK NEVERMIND I CAN'T HOLD IT, I AM SO EXCITED.
Can't say I'm super-excited. Certainly can deny that I'm hyperventilating or anything like that. I guess I feel like I've been burned so many times (mostly by that guy at watmm, whatshisname and his little practical jokes), that I can't really even shake the feeling that this is some sort of mistake. Let's see what Warp says.
You know, why don't we get an advanced heads up about what's going on here? I mean, we're the loyal ones--why shouldn't we hear something a bit earlier than the rest of the world. I mean, I certainly think I'm entitled (yeah, I used that word--come at me, bro) to find out before those douchebags at Pitchfork. Alas, I'll probably hear about the details of any new releases from those hipster doofusses before I even get the announcement email from Warp.

I mean yeah, of course, after years of this silence you'd think they would do more than just update the website with a blank box. But if you really think about it, the webmaster of the site had to specifically edit the flash file to include that extra box (unless its dynamic, in which case he still updated an xml file) and then upload those changes. that can not be a mistake, it was purposefully done, even if its not a new album or EP someone still asked someone else to make that change, for a reason. Also, they're using the same blank graphic (confirm?) that they used when this happened with TCH.
but it's just white.
