Funny Google Yahoo-Like Homepage

Google is one of the largest online companies on the internet, with millions of users and a huge profit every day. Because it is one of the most important online firms, Google tried to patent all the elements that make the company unique to avoid being copied by other developers. Some time ago, Google granted a patent for the way the search engine's result page looks so nobody will copy the appearance of the Google's index. Because Google is not the only company that is trying to provide powerful solutions to earn money and popularity, the company has several rivals that are continuously challenging the search giant's products.

One of these companies is Yahoo, the giant portal that also owns a big number of solutions offered to millions of users every day. Recently, when Microsoft released the final version of the Internet Explorer 7 browser, Yahoo developed a special version of the application, optimized for the company. Internet Explorer 7 Optimized for Yahoo included the toolbar also provided by the giant portal, as well as several tools that offered instant access to Yahoo's services.

Obviously, Google developed its own version of Internet Explorer 7 Optimized for Google that included multiple utilities including Google Toolbar and other services provided by the company. Because this application represented a special product for both companies, Google and Yahoo created separated websites for IE7. The amazing fact is that Google copied the Yahoo's Internet Explorer 7 homepage with the same design, borders and elements. At that time, multiple users criticized the search giant, saying that Google's employees didn't use a template and copied the exact webpage from Yahoo. Matt Cutts, a Google engineer, said that he is sorry for the mistake and the company is developing another webpage for the Google optimized version of IE7.

Today, Google Watch posted a message on their official blog to present a new interface of the Google homepage that is exactly the same as Yahoo's design and layout. Obviously, the website was only an image created by Google Watch bloggers because Google is a company that would never design a Yahoo-like homepage because the rivalry between the companies is forcing them to create unique solutions. You can admire the image created by Google Watch below and observe the Google elements placed in the same way as Yahoo's.
