Janet Jackson has hit the top of the charts. Not the music charts, the Internet search charts. According to Terra Lycos and Yahoo, Jackson's flashy finish at the Super Bowl halftime show is the most searched-for image in Internet history. It blew the Britney-Madonna smooch out of the water, which you have to think was part of the plan. TiVo officials say the mammary moment was also the most-replayed scene in its history. Which makes you wonder -- if this had happened 10 years ago, would anyone have noticed, or would it have been a flash in the pan?
