No it isn't.

There are chavs on bebo yah, but you'll find just as many on facebook etc.

On topic it's alright, its easier to work than facebook IMO.

i dont think its as good as facebook,lmao :)

Jords 23-12-2009 04:10 PM

I have facebook, myspace and bebo.

Facebook is by far the best,
I was addicted to bebo before I knew about facebook, and since all my friends had it, but no longer go on it, and well myspace is crap and Ive hardly been on it.

Oh dear.

Unless their a Music Artist or trying to launch a Music Career.
Dont even try arguing with that becuase its a fact.


If you walked down the street now and asked a Teen if they used Bebo they would say yes, if you asked a Adult if they used Facebook, they would say yes.

If you asked anyone if they used Myspace they would say no and look at you like you have 3 heads.

The majority of people in the UK who dont use computers that much, havent heard of Myspace.
I dont even know if Myspace is still as popular as it use to be in America.

Apps arent used that much on it though, and tbf it wont be a thing of the past aslong as people still use it.

Like I said Facebook and Bebo are the only two social sites in the UK.

What person uses Myspace if there not from America or if there not a singer.

Twitter is used by Celebrities thats it.

Facebook is still so boring and plain compared to Bebos layout.

I know they're not anymore, but they were, and the members told them yet again to get rid of it, and they just completely refused to listen. Oh, and then they got taken over by AOL and then it went down the shitter even more. Facebook will become a thing of the past in a few years time, everything does. Something new and innovative will come along, and bam, people forget about the previous craze and move on.

Facebook has far more better features than Bebo. It takes some getting used to at first but once you're into it you can't get enough. I remember I couldn't get enough of Bebo in its old days, and it's like that with Facebook now.

Bebo is a site for chavvy kids they outnumber any adults using it by probably a large amount, it's unsophisticated and it's got nowhere near the amount of features facebook has.

LOL at how you tell Patrick not to issue assumptions by fact, and then go on to say "bebo is a site for chavvy kids", when that's an assumption..

It's an assumption that unlike Patrick's has more chance of being right though.

Also I never presented that part as fact like Patrick tends to.

The only plus feature Bebo has to Facebook is Skins, but then they changed the profile layout and again, that completely went down the shitter.

Alright fair enough..
But btw, The Staff at Bebo recently changed alot of things due to its users asking for things back or things took off.

Just 2 weeks ago, they changed the Profiles back to the old ones after months of people asking for it.
So they have begun to listen.

I think FB would of been better if they used Profiles, instead of those ugly pages with a Wall and Pictures and Info.

Bebos features are easier to find IMO.

Millions of people in Europe use MySpace. Millions.

You really have no fucking idea whatsoever. Your views on this topic are so warped it's incredible. Bebo for the young, Facebook for the old, MySpace for the Americans.

I'm sorry but it's not that simple. Your full of ****.

I realise they've started to change things back, I checked this morning, but it's far too late now. People threatened to leave, and by the looks of things, they did. Yes there are lots of people still remaining but on the whole many have left. If they'd had changed it back the day after when people had asked them to it might've had some hope.

But I'll give you that, Bebo's features are easier.

It's not as simple either to say Bebo for the chavs, Facebook for people who aren't chavs, which you've said in here..

It's not an assumption, just a comment on one of Bebo's most distinguishable features. Of course not everybody on Bebo is a chav, but it's known for chavs, like it or not. We would not be bringing it up otherwise unless there was a general consensus on the matter, would we?

lily. 23-12-2009 04:17 PM

I love myspace. I'm not american. I hate facebook. I am old.

W/e
But you know for a fact Myspace is the least popular out of the 3 in the UK.
Even if Bebo isnt used as much anymore (as jack said) its still more well knowen than Myspace.
In the UK, not incuding the whole of Europe.

I never said Facebook was for people who are not chavs. Facebook is tearing with chavs. Read things over properly before you comment on them.

Of course I do. Congratulations on simply offering up a 'W/E' and backtracking on your original argument, though.

MySpace is only used by Americans and artists.

Holy ****, like.

lily. 23-12-2009 04:20 PM

-is not American-

-is not an artist (unless piss-artist counts)-

-uses myspace-

I couldn't say for a fact but I'd imagine Myspace is more popular then Bebo, Most people I know look at Bebo as a bit of a joke and pretty much everyone I know went from Bebo to Myspace to Facebook in that order. It might not be the same for everyone but at least what I know I'd say that Bebo is the least popular at least here.

Jack_ 23-12-2009 04:22 PM

Everyone I know went from Bebo to Facebook. I was pretty much the first on Facebook and then two months later everyone else was on it.

I've seen the odd MySpace profile from people I know but on the whole I've never heard of anyone mention it. I've tried it myself, and can't get used to it.
