Since it's a design patent you would have to be really, really, close to the design laid forth in the patent to infringe it.
Will this invalidate all search type pages with a logo on top, an input box, and a search button? No. Will this stop a company named go0g13 having a home page with a search box, and two search buttons under the box? Most likely.
Honestly though, there is no need for internet outrage about a design patent, taking off the "feeling lucky" button and not having a multi-colored logo similar to Google's should be enough to skate around it.
