Hi everyone! Thanks for all the great feedback. I'd like to clarify a few issues and respond to some of the questions that you have posted real quickly.

First of all, cross-wiki search will not replace the standard search that is already on your wiki. Initially, cross-wiki search will only be launched here on Wikia Central, and should give people visiting wikia.com for the first time the best opportunity possible to find wikis that they might be interested in. We may choose to expand it to be available on individual wikis at some point in the future, but even if that happens, it will not replace the existing search on your wiki--only supplement it.

Second, we have no current plans to disallow the Javascript modifications which change the behavior of MyHome; however, over the next couple of months, we will be adding several new features to MyHome which will make it an integral part of the editing experience on Wikia. For that reason, we believe that these hacks are a bad idea and we may need to disallow them at some point in the future.

Finally, we're sorry about the bug that is making it so you can't dismiss the talk page message that we sent out for this blog post. We have resolved the issue; however, it may be necessary for you to log out then log back in to cause the message to disappear (this time only).

Thanks!
