ridiculous. $1 billion...

(just a little hint: there is no bebo like site/community in germany or anywhere else in europe. afaik.)

Bebo is massive in the UK and they make it hard to spam etc with. Bebo is the new myspace only more personal and organised

I hope Bebo comes with some lube for Yahoo! because they are about to get fucked in the ass if they pay $1B for it.

logiik · 05-28-2007, 11:58 AM

I've tried Bebo. It sucks ass compared to MySpace and Facebook.

maverick · 05-28-2007, 12:52 PM

There is still alot of $$$ to be made from BEBO if you have the right ideas and can get your food in the door.

QFT...!

$1billion is alot. My company is developing a new social networking website Sceneparty.com
im hoping for 2 - 3 times the amount of members that Bebo has. Myspace and Facebook are amazing though i have to say

sebastya · 06-02-2007, 01:35 AM

myspace has 180 million members, bebo only has 30 million

and bebo is being sold for more?

LOL

Honestly,
I think fox underpaid for myspace.com... Once myspace was sold companies realized the value of websites such as myspace and have upped the bid :X

haha... you really think myspace has 180 million members?
every stupid user in this community has at least 2 accounts and its likely even more.

... better calc with ( 180 / 4 ) and you have a real count of members.

(for americans: thats 45 million)

you can suck a dick too.

being a citizen of a country has no bearing on intelligence or wisdom.

you ass puppets.

DorianWar · 06-04-2007, 03:14 AM

Bebo... good to use when your target market is Artsy types.

Myspace... In the last 2 days I've had like 10 friends requests from hot young girls. That's on a default profile with no-photo or text. lol, fake profiles are getting ridiculous.

misterproline · 06-06-2007, 05:37 AM

fake profiles are what keep my chimmy chonga'ing.

Skorpio · 06-30-2007, 03:39 PM

Seriously in the UK everyone under the age of 25 is talking about bebo, and most don't like myspace because of the lame ass emos you get on it. To say that it's big in the UK would be an understatement!
