I mostly hate self-congratulatory redesign blogs, please don't tell me what "inspired" you to redesign an icon that's about a centimeter across.

My main peeve here though is that this is just Material Design. The multi-layer icons with heavy use of shadows. The more rounded look, the color palette choices. Microsoft's Metro/Modern design stood out from it's competitors, and this does not.
