If you were already in Google, why didn't you click on the plus 1 thing? it would've giving you the answer (as google always does).

Google is redesigning a number of their products, including Gmail and Calendar, as well as Search. This is going on concurrent to the release of Google+.
 
Overall, the design changes are refreshing, and the +1 and Google+ remain a tiny niche.
 
not sure if anyone caught this but earlier today the youtube player had a ui change, not there now but maybe they were testing something? the whole player was the black color like how google looks now.
 
Google has been visually tweaking a bunch of their things - which is good. Up 'til now it's been designed by programmers (eg, hideous). It's a move in the right direction I think.

Moved to Apple, Industry and Internet Discussion forum.

Is this your first MR mod move? If so, congrats. :)
 
everyone hceck out youtube right now. watch a video and you will see the new design that i was talking about before. i don't know how long it will be up but i personally really don't like it.
