Nah, dodgy ntl box has you covered
Don't forget the decking for your back garden.
Have you heard MCR are coming out with a new album; Black Party or something it's called?

I remember a friend in 2007, just started our first job. He was made to get all of his housemates to go the Dubai Property Expo in the RDS, that very day.
He'd just read a pullout supplement in the Indo that day and thought they should all go to the expo and club in together on an apartment in Dubai.
"Sure, it couldn't be a scam, it's in a proper newspaper!"
I choked up reading this
And with that, you just sent me back in time to my TY classroom
And the next episode of Heroes!
😘 💋 xx bEbOStUnNaHs 💋 😘
Jesus imagine if Bebo had the full range of emojis back in the day...
:L
Be me other half yeh? Xoxoxox
I'm going to have start thinking about which friends will make my front page list.
I really hope they keep the original design in some way
Only way this survives is on nostalgia
Returning to that model won't work for them in today's world. The landscape has changed completely with people are flocking away from Facebook, so they're not going to move to a shitter version of it. I reckon this will be a complete revamp with short burst content as the main pull in.
If people join and it's just a fb clone it's goodnight.
Difficult for them no matter what
Yeah they'll get away from that altogether. Probably some Tik Tok, Twitch direction. It's what the kids want. *Sips prune juice.
A warrior's drink!
Twitch acquired the previous incarnation of Bebo, streaming and tournament management software, for $25m, letting the original founder of Bebo keep the name.
Bearing in mind that he's good at finding a market niche and leveraging the Bebo name, wouldn't be surprising if the streaming focus was repeated here somehow.
It's worth noting that they've revived it multiple times before as well.
There's no way this survives full stop. Old school social networks are dead.
Yeah this isn't their first revival either as far as I remember. It's a little sad they're trying to be honest.
the Bebo chat app died after two years, but it was weird and unique. the next project they did after that did make them money though. personally I'm cautiously interested in seeing what they do. I don't imagine it being "sad" though.
What's nuts is that it mustn't have even been mobile optimized
What about you luv?
I'll have to get some DJ Cammy and shite cars drifting for my flashbox.
I'm so happy I was a cringe rocker kid who hated this cringe dance music. Those were the days
Hahaha awh god I'm getting nostalgic cringe from those. You inspired me to go back and find my actual flashbox, found it here. 😂
oh jesus.....
They've gone and come back so many times, but their new versions always fade away a few months after the launch.
Michael Birch is some man though, sold bebo for 850 million and bought it back off Yahoo for just a million.
Sounds like he's shorting Bebo. We should buy all the stock. Bebo billionaires we'd be.
Bebo billionaire has such a nice ring to it.
"Yeah lad - 2021 was shite craic too, but I bought up Bebo for a laugh - best notion I ever had". -Some cunt c.2037.
Birches owned 70%, so it was about 600m
He sold it to AOL. They sold it to Criterion Capital Partners.
He may as well have burned that million.
Actually, he sold it again for 25m.
He can't keep getting away with it!
If i was venture capitalist, i'd give that lad a few spondulicks
The last thing they did was a streaming software suite, for twitch and the like. It was actually really good but never took off. Seemed pretty random tbh.

♡♡♡♡
Remember Alf? He's back..in Pog form.
KomodoHype
Da fuk yas doin in here! Lookin at dat smut! Im updating me Bebo page..
Fuckin legend that Nidge
Remember spicers ? With the bright mullets?! There were actually bebo pages for rating lad's mullets 🤣 DuBliiN SPiiCE B0yZ
I'm guilty of being one of those saps with the mullet back in 2006-2007, but I had no idea there was a page to rate lad's mullets. That is so ridiculous lmao.
One of my mate's brother's was a poster boy for a few spicer pages haha. His mullet got him all the girloz in fairness so the stupid haircut wasn't in vain. Hope yours had a similar result!
Kids today don't know the struggle of trying to find good flashbox videos.
There was no youtube. You had to find and download .swf files and upload them.
They also never know the pain that was the internet riddled with Flash.
Look forward to having a load of cocks drawn on my wall...... Again
Who wants to be in my top friends?
I'll share de love if you let me in.
always a bit strange how it was locally popular in ireland, it wasn't an irish company or something (unlike boards.ie (shudder) say). Well I suppose that applies to reddit too. Wtf are we doing here?
Wasn't just here, it was briefly the most popular social network site in the uk as well
Hey, Google’s Orkut went virtually unheard of around the globe, but it was bigger than anything in Brazil.
I remember being an Irish guy joining Orkut. Crap for us, unreal for Brazilians.
Learning about yards, gallons, feet and inchs. Biden's not my president haha.
BeboBabez4Eva xoxoxo
Time to grow back the emo fringe I guess.
InstaFaceBoTok
I was too old for Bebo the first time around.
am I the only one that only thinks of love/hate when they hear bebo?
Im updatin' me bebo page!
Haven't they tried relaunching like 3-4 times now?
[removed]
I mean, the birches have made enough from the initial sale to AOL and repurchased it at bargain rates, so they can keep trying stuff to see what sticks as long as they want, I guess
So weird that you would be downvoted for that. I'd love to know the mentality of someone that would read your comment and it would illicit enough of a negative response from them to actually bother downvoting. Utterly bizarre.
Can't say I noticed it. Random comments get upvotes or downvotes for different reasons. Maybe someone's not happy I was negative about ready salted crisps in another thread, maybe someone feels it somehow contradicts my earlier comment, maybe someone just hit downvote while scrolling in a mobile app.
My mates and I were really into this for a spell but lost interest after about a week
I'd love to be able to get my old photos back.
The only reason I clicked in this thread was this
Apparently it's only available if you've been vaccinated
Every time I see that red 'B' logo I always think Bebo, and it's usually Beats.
Anyone remember Epic Boobs Girl?
I'm surprised that nobody has remarked how there are no official news stories, no contacts, no communication, or the like. The WHOIS says nothing and it's all very strange. It's hosted on Google Cloud, but that's no cause for concern- merely an observation.
For all that people know, this could just be harvesting emails.
I don't know how I saw an email form. My bad.
I'd believe that if they had a place right now to submit your email address.
Jeazus I might give that a go 🤔
Vaguely remember the chap bought in back from AOL for a fraction of the price and then put up a massive piss take video on it about how it's the top dick drawing site of the web or something
Considering how badly made the current site on bebo.com is, I don't hold out much hope.
BUY BUY BUY
This is the lockdown news we didn’t know we needed
I went on Bebo a few years ago to see what it was up to. It had turned into this weird mish mash of music/news feed. It was awful and really uninviting.
Didn't it already come back?
I hope all my wall drawings are still there
Kill it with fire this time. It’s bad enough having a toxic Twitter and a data stealing, conspiracy spreading shit heap called Facebook. Can’t we just let dead things stay dead? Otherwise I fear this will lead to zombies and we have seen first hand how rubbish people are at following simple rules to not get infected by a disease.
Bebo was daycent.
Did it not make a comeback a few years ago, then just disappear?
I hope the autoplay video comes back.
Anyone have any idea how to get a beta password? Any devs on here want to DM me... I’ll put you in my top 16 and I’ll share the luv every day xoxo
I'll make ya a custom background just give me your password ya?
Anyone got the password
I remember a time when I actually was excited for social media. Nothing could be less appealing that joining the beta of a social media site now.
Amazon bought Bebo in 2019... That's all you need to know about that
Time to rewatch The Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny and start a list of Chuck Norris facts to post.
I got an email beta password for this and no idea why but I think its account specific. I've used it and it works. If yas wanna try, work away

That code didn't work for me. Are you allowed to post screenshots of what it looks like or did you have to sign an NDA?
I did follow the project for a while. the original creator has sold bebo for millions and once fb ant other showed up he bought it back for thousands . created a new social madia that was heave based on user avatars but it was kinda meh and nobody really cared about it. that was few years ago. not sure what happen to bebo since
Ooh I'm excited to relive my time as an infamous New Zealand scene kid named "Jay Junkie"
can someone message me the bebo pwd. I hate Facebook ( and all the companies it has bought)
