Google (possibly) rolling out updated UI

Today, I found out that Google looked a little bit different than usual. Could it be I'm looking at Google's future UI?

    Considering that these look very like the design of www.wdyl.com AND we're only seeing this after wdyl.com is unveiled I'm led to believe that this is the product of someone who has too much time on their hands.

    The design is also very not-google-style, look at the buttons. There's a blue one for the image search and then some crap looking grey ones for text search.

    Explanation: This morning, Google suddenly looked different on my laptop. I believe that I was lucky enough to see the new UI as it was being A/B-tested.

    I've had that interface for a while now (probably regional split testing).
