In a blog post, discovered by TheNextWeb , one user reports that the login page for Gmail has been dramatically redesigned, placing the login at the center of the page; this is similar to its mobile app.

I attempted to duplicate the results, using three different computers and several different U.S.-based Gmail accounts, but the Gmail login page remained unchanged. However, the new login page showed up for Mashable Contributing Editor Anita Li, who is based in Toronto, Canada. Here's how it looks:

Comments by Gmail users on Twitter suggest that the change may be hitting international users outside the U.S. first.

Google did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
