In my experience it is only graphic designers who think that Google products are poorly designed. Everyone else just marvels at how easy they are to use and gets on with it. I'd argue that Google products are, in the main, exceptionally well designed from an interaction point of view.
Take the original Google homepage. They were the first to realise that the only thing people want on a search engine homepage is a search box. Or what about Google checkout, Gmail, or even Google Chrome which has some really neat interactions not seen anywhere else. Google has excellent attention to detail but only the details that matter to most of their userbase. In the end, does it really matter if the buttons in Google Docs are a different shade to those in Gmail?
