    Tell me about it, I always think of Bebo as the crappy, chav version of Facebook and MySpace. I almost hate the site because of what it is full of :rolleyes:

    most people hate it, but its got 40 million users, and you gotta congratulate the developers, as it only cost them 8 grand to set up !

    I had no idea that Bebo was worth so much.

    hopefully they will be changing the servers, and all the backups fail. It's annoying to hear that some chaw could beat anyone in world because he play poker on bebo, get real money - then talk!

    Good move by AOL as a play for European advertizing euros considering that the Euro is around $1.55

    Actually Bebo has a very wide user base, Mainly in the 10-14 year old age base (i used to use it, but dropped it when i became older and couldnt deal with the immaturity)

    That's what I am finding. I know so many preteens and early teens using Bebo that I had to create a Bebo profile myself. It sometimes seems like the entire school population of those I know use Bebo.

    I dropped back to MySpace (has improved quite a bit recently) from Facebook (privacy is kinda smegged there), so now have an active profile there, on Linkedin and on Bebo <-- talk about a wide demographic!
