The only piece of relevance that Bebo has

A thread on X reminded me of this film, probably my favourite #Romcom - the Hotel Decent scene still gets me every time #Bollywood #Bebo #JabWeMet

And continuing the 'it's complicated' relationships theme in my blast from past playlist, my favourite song from the Hindi romance I've rewatched BY FAR the most #JabWeMet #Bebo #filmi #Bollywood

Don’t pay too much attention to #Twitter that’s days, but I was thinking about other big tech acquisitions: #MySpace, #Bebo, #Tumblr…all ended up more or less failing (though tumblr is finding a new footing it seems) and sold off for a piddly fraction of what they were bought for. Maybe Jack and co were smart: there’s no viable business model for the platform that doesn’t devalue it, so they took the big bucks and got out while the going was good.

@vga256 I'm looking for a definitive timeline — maybe I should make one — I feel like it should definitely mention #Bebo and #Snapchat

I found this by Hannah Herman https://www.workato.com/the-connector/history-chat-apps/

From AIM to Slack: Tracing the History of Chat Apps

In 2016, 2.5 billion people used at least one messaging app. For many people, chat apps are a given part of their workday. How did they become so popular?

I love that people all have their own #NetHistory sagas, depending on their ages. #mIRC or #MSNMessenger, #Friendster, #Bebo, #HabboHotel or now #Snapchat and #TikTok. When and how we first got online is a rite of passage now.

Sorry, I'm rambling, as ever!

Great read!

"Today, it’s getting harder to believe that these networks will last forever. In the blink of an eye, they’ve gone from unassailable eternal mountains to shifting sands that might blow away at at time. Users are scrambling to download their data and tell their friends where they can be found if (when?) the service disappears.

How did these systems go from permanent to ephemeral? How did it happen so quickly..."

Right now this place is like Bebo when it started to get semi-big. The creators sold to AOL for $850 million in 2008, and it quickly died. They made out like bandits. #bebo #myspace
@MuellerSheWrote Nice to see you on Mastodon.
I think that #Elon may be encountering his #BEBO or #MySpace moment 👍
