Why did the color and layout of Yahoo! Answers change a few minutes ago?

I have a Mac, running OS X Tiger. I started viewing this site earlier this evening and all looked as it usually does. Then, as I flipped to another page, it all changed. The text is darker (a good thing), but the layout is mixed up. Has anyone else had this happen?

    It's the Beta version, people! They're still messing around with it. Someone in the Yahoo! Answers office probably wanted to see what it would look like if they changed a few things.

    It's not that different. The layout is still the same, it's just that the category list has been revamped into tabs. There's also a minor face lift to the main page and the profile pages, but unresolved question pages still remain the same with the light green buttons and white edges. Once you click into a specific category, the layout will also revert back to the old-style Y!A interface.. The styling is inconsistent, this is probably something they'll fix later but right now it's kinda looks like a half-assed job.

    Well, I didn't notice the color or layout change, but I see now some nice sticky-notes that have made the additional functions more visible. I like it :)
