Google just got caught red-handed: Somebody from Google pretty much copied an entire announcement page from Yahoo about Internet Explorer 7, replaced "Yahoo" with Google, replaced Yahoo's purple with Google's turquoise, and put it on Google's site. Check it out, it's unbelievably....evil. ;) And stupid.

Doth mine ears just sense the noise of a Google employee getting fired quicker than you can say "Yahoooo-ooooh"?

Google Blatantly Copies Yahoo!? (by Jeremy Zawodny)

Edit: Before you think Yahoo would be above ever doing this, check this page out (seems to be a "rebuttal" by a Google guy)... the plot thickens. ;)

my guess would have been that it was a template too. I know when my company does one of it's partnership advertising thingys it always controls how things look

According to the one guy, it wasn't a template - of course, he's a Yahoo guy so you never know. :)

Hmmm, but even if it was so, Google at the very least copied the screenshot of the browser and blurred out the "Y" on the toolbar, which otherwise looks exactly the same. :)
