Okay, it's getting kind of silly now.
Twitter has black band across the top of the window with various utilities and menu options.
WordPress has a dark one (if you're logged into the blog), too.
And now the standard Google design has a black band across the top.
Each of which is fine, but combined turns out to be confusing. Wait, that notification, it was over there, but now it's — oh, I'm in a different application, silly me …
It almost makes me feel fond toward Facebook and it's navy blue band across the top. And that'll never do!
