If you compare both these pages

Is it a coincidence both companies now use 'simplicity, boxy, lots of white space' design look?

I know Microsoft did it because that's how 'Metro' supposed to look ... but doesn't Google feel ashame to mimic Microsoft?

Or is it the other way around?

Compare it to this page which was created (seems like) a long time ago

    In the first half of the 19th century a Hungarian mathematician in a small town in Transylvania and a Russian mathematician somewhere far from Moscow worked out the same theory of non-euclidean geometry in the same time: Bolyai and Lobachevsky.

    They didn't know about each other and they've never met. They certainly didn't see each other's work, ever.

    Remember, we are in the 1820s... no internet, no TV, no radio, just two geniuses
    It can happen!
