Recapped: Search, and the world searches with you

Defamer’s Owen Wilson nickname breaks into the IMDb; note that Defamer uses Adblock. See it on the edge of that edited screencap?

Critics love War of the Worlds. This time no one panicked in the streets during the premier.

Jeff Jarvis spanks Marshall Loeb’s “let’s take a look at these blog things” article, adding, “Marshall was, by the way, the executive at Time Inc. who first rejected my proposal for Entertainment Weekly — six years before it ended up launching.”

Yahoo’s social search My Web 2.0 debuts, covered on Yahoo! Search blog and promoed on FlickrBlog. Matt Haughey digs it. This could overshadow Google’s new personal search, as Waxy’s Andy Baio notes. To review: go to Yahoo to ask all your friends for stuff to do. Go to Google to curl up in your own comfy little ball of search. Come to Blogebrity to read about people you’ll never know but who aren’t as famous as you’d like to believe.

Meanwhile, Google Video Viewer gets cracked. Engadget and Boing Boing are on it, with the requisite BB red-letter correction.

Oh man! There was only some incidental implication of Tom Cruise in this recap! WOOOO!
