Google plus interface a new trend for rounded corners?

Google with the launch of Google Plus has introduced  a series of user interface changes. Probably you will have noticed the big black bar on top of your Google account.

Gmail is getting a cleaner, more modern look over the newxt few months.
It looks like this:
