Mine does not look like that. It just has a new black bar at the top.

I use Scroogle.org for my searches, so I have no opinion on the changes.

Google has started adding the "+1" button to all their pages around the world (eg : .fr,.it,.ro .. ) so they need it to point out this new feature with a small redesign.Looks good....Google has a very simple and professional look for their page so any change is always easy to spot

Me too a black bar and I like the new layout than before.

It has been proven that people will always like the "new" ....Google has a good designing team so it won't be a surprising if most of the people will like it.
I can tell you that if : after 6months Google will release a new design and we will ask the users again : "Do you like it more than the previous one?" , most will say : "Yes, it looks awesome!"

This looks pretty good, but Instant is kind of laggy for me now.

I use Chrome and the bar is white, but with IE9 the bar is black.

I do see from Jack's screenshot he is using Chrome, but still uses the black bar. :huh:

I've signed up to be notified about Google+.

Do you agree that Google's white, bright colours have partially kept the company with a good reputation? - I do.

Seems its like all browser will shown black bar, I tested in Google Chrome in laptop then its a black bar itself.

Google has released products built and designed by engineers.Google design was very simple and without any unneeded elements,Google Search site was designed with only one thing in mind : maximize the loading times.
Reportedly, within Google, when designers and engineers clashed over a product, the engineers usually won.
This new changes are a step forward when it comes to design,if you take a look at the official Google+ page you'll find a lot of colors and design elements which is something new for Google.. (+1 Google!)

RE: Review: The modernized, refreshed Google interface

Google should learn from Apple......beautiful looking products "sell" better,the design is a important part of how successful a product will be.
According to Google this re-design is a project that will run over the next few months, and the users will continue to see more updates.

Google design evolution :

Original Google homepage in 1997

New Google homepage (2011) with a smaller logo and links moved to the top and bottom edges of the browser for a cleaner look
