Default "AOL, Mere Copycat" - Yahoo!

I run over this article from TechCrunch fresh.

You can now view AOL's latest version of its homepage and you be the judge...ripoff or what?:

Hey look at here... AOL copying from Yahoo? And I thought big companies don't do this. For this time copying has exceeded the limit to the arrangement of images and text boxes. This behavior just depicts the absence of ideas to brought up, even in big IT companies.

What is the good response to this?

It was said that even AOL employees dubbed this beta homepage as Yahoo-portal. Now that says a lot.

After much scrutiny from surfers and critics, AOL decided to change this overnight!

That is somehow an acceptance.

Oh god , not again this is also too much of a copy even the placement of the advertisements and information box and tabs is too similar and not even too much of a color change .as long as aol has been around they couldn’t come up with something more original? I do not think that big websites should be doing this at all .now come on they cannot come up with a different design which almost all good experienced webmasters can do . gosh ! well i think then many smaller websites with original designs are way better .
