On: New Gmail un-minimalistic homepage

Looks like there is a pattern -

New Google Analytics landing page - http://www.google.com/analytics/

Or Google Hangouts landing page - http://www.google.com/hangouts/

Hangouts you would expect people to be smiling and happy, that's the product.

Google Analytics though, a bigass testimonial with random people smiling is very offputting.

Google Wallet too - http://www.google.com/wallet/
