Remember when Michael Jackson was one of the biggest things on the Web? So 10 days ago. Cable TV and gossip magazines are still cranking out as much Jackson stuff as they can, but Web video viewers have moved on.

Depending on your perspective, this is either interesting news or heartening news: Michael Jackson's funeral and memorial were indeed a giant Internet event. But they don't seem to have been as big as Michael Jackson's death, and they weren't as big as Barack Obama's inauguration. So, let's call them the third-biggest Web event of the year. To date.

Looks like I called this one wrong: Earlier in the day, I predicted that Web interest in Michael Jackson's funeral would be less than expected because anyone who really cared about this would be watching on TV. Nope.
