Apparently the issue is with Dota 2 trying to update.

Nope, everything works for me so far. They even changed the steam interface a bit as well.

I personally think the new play button is looking horrible.

I cant update games too, thanks to Dota 2(probably). And i dont have beta steam.

Beta client is working great for me, but I don't have DOTA2 installed.
Nice tweaks to the UI, but I still prefer http://metroforsteam.com/ as a Skin instead of the default layout (even if it's slightly improved now). ^^

The Metro Skin? Do you know if it has different taskbar icons for Windows 8? It's just that the grey standard Steam one kinds breaks the design of the OS.

Using the Metro Skin doesn't change the icon in the taskbar, it remains the grey one for the current Steam release or the blue one (picture in the OP) for the new beta release. However you can try Metro skin for yourself, it is just a file to put into the Skin folder of Steam and select it from the Steam skin options. ;)

Yep. I love the new theme, although it needs more polish before release. The play buttons have this ridiculous gradient that makes it impossible to tell where the button ends. Everything in general needs more borders. The font size has been made too small. Text needs more contrast. Circular logo looks terrible, go back to squares but keep the nice gloss/bluepurple effect on it. Still looks slick though.

So Steam apparently has changed the logo on the client (i think beta only), Steam client is really slow and constantly crashing for me.
Did you noticed anything else?
New Client Logo
If you have the same issue of Steam freezing it seems is caused by an update of Dota 2 that is in a loop of start and stop. I cancelled the update and seems to work fine now.
