[Gmail] Nice features but ugly buttons...as usual

This is a great article I found on PC world making comments on the recent changes of Gmail.

I can definitely understand the great features that smart Google trying to bring to the world, and users will NOT abandon gmail or the other services because of some usability or UI issues. However, I really don't like the button of Compose mail/ New contact. It looks like the buttons in my lo-fi prototypes, which, ummm, usually has nothing to do with aesthetics. I had the same feeling toward YouTube and honestly to say, I think Google is growing backward.
