Hi Sima,
     Google has never taken kindly to anyone doing a direct takeoff of  
their layout; the "Booble" search engine of a few years back comes to  
mind.
     Sun has a history of putting a stop to anything that uses the  
fiercely-guarded "Java (TM)" trademark; they've made quite a few Java  
community-centered sites change their names because of it over the  
years.  Somehow I doubt the two extra As will throw them off.
     Both companies have their own legion of corporate lawyers whose  
work week includes putting the smack-down on folks, and once you make  
it onto their radar, they seldom choose to let anything slide.

Best wishes,
Barry
