Google blatently copies yahoo site design for new IE7 promo
Today I was searching on Jeremy Z’s blog who is considered a yahoo spokesman and I found a very shocking post. Basically yahoo created a page for a internet explorer download for IE7 and recently Google straight up stole the design and page copy. In the webmaster world this is considered horrendously unethical and the fact that Google would do such a thing is very unlike them. Matt Cutts posted a reply to Jeremy’s blog and proclaimed shock that anyone from Google would do such a thing.

No, it's not spam. Jeremy Zawodny really did blog about it. And it's not a template. Maybe an intern made that page.

Google changed their page, but not too much?

Well this was going to happen some day. Well if Yahoo! has no issues with this then why should we all.
Anyways this reminds me of the world famous cold war of the cola companies, Pepsi and Coca.
Lets not get involved in this guys.
