Bebo is a social networking website, created to enable friends to stay in contact. It has developed into an online community where friends can post pictures, write blogs and send messages to one another, and is similar in format to MySpace, hi5.com and Yahoo! 360.

The site has been increasing in popularity, with over 22,000,000 registered members (although a much smaller number of members are regularly active on the website). Bebo is the 340th most popular English language website according to Alexa Internet, and the second most popular in Ireland according to the Irish Independent (17th in the UK). In the US, Bebo was the fastest growing social networking site in June 2006 according to Hitwise, Inc.

Once a user has registered an account, their "Bebo Homepage" is created. The contents of this page are edited by the user, using online forms. The top of a user's homepage contains profile information about the user, which would typically include their name, a picture, a paragraph about them, and some profile information under a few different headings. Default headings are Music, Films, Sports, Scared Of and Happiest When. Many users use their own headings to reflect their own interests, or to include quips, quotes or jibes.

The typical homepage contains much more than just the above information. Every homepage must include the following sections:

  • Whiteboard; in which other Bebo users who view the page can draw pictures (which become visible to everyone viewing the homepage) using a simple online system called ffArt (standing for 'free form Art'). Whiteboards can now be reviewed by recipients before they go live on their pages. Users can either Accept, Reject or Decide Later what to do with a received comment. This option is accessible through the "My Account" link.
  • Comments; where viewers of the page can leave text comments. Towards the end of August 2006, users were given the ability to reply easily to other users' comments on their homepage through a new "Reply" link. This lets you decide whether to reply publicly (by leaving a comment on their homepage) or privately (by sending a reply by the Mail system) and also presents the text of the original comment for reference. After criticism over malicious comments, Bebo have added an option to allow users to review new comments before they are posted on their page. This works exactly like the Whiteboard system, discussed above.
  • Friends; which shows, in a four by four panel, the profiles pictures of sixteen of the page-holder's friends. Clicking on any of these pictures brings you to that person's homepage. All of a user's friends are publicly visible: above the four by four panel, there is a link to a complete listing of the user's friends. The selection of the "top sixteen" friends had previously been automated, but now each user can select which sixteen friends they wish to appear directly on their homepage. As of August 2006, when a user orders their top 16 friends, there is no way for him or her to changed it back to the original randomised setting.

A homepage would also usually include the following:

  • Quizzes; where viewers of the page can answer quizzes composed by the page-holder. A typical quiz might be titled "How well do you know <>?" Upon completion of the quiz, the percentage scores and answers of all previous quiz-takers become visible. Each taker of the quiz may also leave a comment which will be displayed next to the score they attained.
  • BeboTV; this holds multimedia content which plays when the page is viewed. This can either be video content uploaded directly to Bebo's servers (using client-side VideoEgg publishing software), or a link to an externally hosted Flash file. The video-uploading functionality was introduced in early April 2006. As of June 2006, Bebo is only allowing users to use YouTube's flash movies alongside the VideoEgg system, however this is expected to change in the near future. Previously, this feature was known as Flashbox and any Flash file could be linked to. "Channels" have also been added to the Bebo TV system, including Music, Sports, Comedy, Art and many others. Each channel has its own chart as well as the universal chart. It also received a place in the uppermost navigation bar, alongside Mail, Bands, College etc.
  • Polls; where the page-viewer can vote in a poll or polls created by the page-holder. Each poll has between two and five options; only one can be selected. The page which displays the current standings of a poll also shows comments left by those who took the poll.
  • Photos; this section shows a number of titled photo albums, each one containing pictures uploaded by the holder of the page. The viewer can leave comments on each picture viewed. One of the pictures is selected by the page-holder as their profile picture. This picture is displayed prominently at the top of their homepage, next to any comments they make, and is used wherever a link to their homepage is required (such as in the "Friends" section of another user). Users are now required to select a Top 21 photo albums to appear on their Homepage, with all albums visible on a separate Photos page. Users also now have the ability to sort the order of photos within their albums. There are, however, strict limitations on picture size, with no dimension allowed to be greater than 500 pixels. Some users compensate for this by leaving a link to a free image site, such as www.imageshack.us, in a comment.
  • Blog; this is where the holder of the page can publish text. Each post comes under its own heading, and the reader of the blog can comment on a particular post (unless this is specifically disabled by the page-holder). This section is often used to display jokes, humorous lists, or other types of on-line humour. It is also commonly used for announcements, musings, or as a public journal.
  • Bands and Playlists; these sections are related to the "Bebo Bands" section of the site (as discussed below). The Bands section is where a user's favourite bands are listed. Users add their favourite bands similarly to how they add new friends on the site. The Playlists section lists a user's playlist of favourite songs from Bebo Bands pages. Users can also copy each others' playlists onto their own pages and, effectively, share them.
