Yahoo got a new logo, and iOS 7 launched a flat design. And now Google wants a bit of both. The company has redesigned its logo, refining the color palette and letter shapes. The new logo will be rolled out over the coming weeks.

The Google bar is also getting an update, that streamlines user experience across products and device. Google products are now accessible under a new app launcher, located at the top right of the screen.
