- The buttons and stuff are shinier.
- The search field is now up top instead of over to the side.
I was somewhat annoyed by that second item for a bit, but I'm already used to it now, and I can see the UX value in putting such a vital, high-volume element in a more prominent place.
What else did they do? The new features link mentions a couple of new editing widgets, which I may explore next time I edit a page, a new version of the logo (part of the general new shininess) and, "improved search suggestions". They've also made it clearer whether you're reading or editing a page, but I've never had a lot of trouble with that distinction.
Of these, the improved search suggestions are the real winner. Search suggestions rock, and I'd say that even if I didn't work for Google.
