Yahoo! Is displaying a new type of blue bar in the search result

Even though it is a blue bar, it is not a thing to be integrated with a browser such as Google Toolbar, but only Yahoo! On the search result screen of the search, the input field when searching again is a blue bar. Apparently some of the users seem to see such a screen.

It seems that it is being tested as to whether the usability improves because not only the appearance changes but also the feeling of operation is changing only a little.
