Default Bebo...all it's cracked up to be?
After yet another hour of worthless trawling of profiles of people I have never/will never meet in my life I'm really starting to question whether Bebo is actually beneficial to my life.

In a purely statistical form, I'm currently 85% non-beneficial...

Bebo is a an over-hyped, life-sapping phenomenon which will soon die out.

I think Bebo is probably more popular. I would have said myspace a couple of weeks ago after hearing people speak about it on here all the time and a couple of other places. Then one day I suddenly realised that practically every person in my uni is spending most their time on Bebo. I'm hearing all sorts of different people al lover the place speaking about Bebo. It makes sense that it's more popular really, from what I've seen Myspace is primarily designed for bands to promote themselve but people obviuosly have pages to ramble on about themselves as well. Bebo is designed for people to ramble on about themsleves, and also to keep in touch with people from school uni etc.

Maybe old MySpace whores have joined Bebo as they see it as a more underground, cooler MySpace-type site where only the best people go - the majority trying to be in the minority so to speak.

I be inclined to say Myspace is the underground version of Bebo

there's no way myspace is underground anything. everyone and their mum is on myspace and it's owned by newscorp now, how can that be underground? it's one of the most visited sites in the entire interweb.
