While it seems like Google's been developing everything but search, everyone else has been cranking out new (or new looking) search engines:
Redesigns:
Yahoo: http://mysearch.yahoo.com/
MSN: http://search.msn.com/
Ask Jeeves: www.ask.com
New:
Amazon: http://www.a9.com/
Clusty[1]: http://clusty.com/
[Update] Google is doing something new that's search related. Their answer to Amazon's a9 search is to steal a page from Amazon's book. They're adding a book feature.
And I missed Google's Personalized Search Feature: http://labs.google.com/personalized
Not sure if there's a lot of point to this, but I guess it's good to have some competition innovation in the search engine space. Most of these sites have gone with a Google look and just added a slight tweak.
[1]Who were the ad wizards who named Clusty? Sounds like a Japanese Gum brand."

Google was verry futuristic when it started, now it's just big. The super simple lay out worked because no one knew what to do with 1000 links. Now the redesign is like the car industry. No room for inovation they can only copy things they don't have. Even the need for search engines does not exist anymore.
