And vice versa. There's a nice table-based layout on the Google front page still!

I don't know about the old Google home page but the current one I see only has one <table> and it's wrapping what I would consider to be tabular data.

I'm looking at google.ca (it redirects me there) and it has the blank space to the left of the search field as a <td>.

Look here: http://www.google.com/advanced_search

Do you consider that mass of table usage to be for tabular data?
