AOL Blatantly Copies Yahoo’s Portal

AOL has done some pretty low things in their miserable existence, but this has got to be the worst. In what seems like a pathetic attempt at a web portal, they totally copied Yahoo.com's design. It's so blatant, it seems as if it were done to get attention to themselves. Almost every detail is the same right down to the order of the links in the left side bar, and the order of the links above the search bar.

This isn't the first time a major player has copied Yahoo. Back in December Google copied Yahoo's page that was promoting "optimized" IE7.
