yea they are annoying all right and also the thick f�cks who forward the e mails thinking bebo staff have sent it even though at the bottom of the sending page there is a warning saying bebo do not make contact with people through bebo mail

a bit of sense wouldn't go astray.

i have a brilliant **** take of a forwarded email.its priceless

sorry for not putting the 3 posts together but i got a bit lazy
EDIT:Cheers dahamsta

can someone explain in simple terms without abusing me for bein an idiot what the hell it is?

**Aberdonian Stu** · 24/02/2006, 9:57 AM

Ouch that's a tough proposition klein4

It's a website which is designed to allow you to keep in touch with friends via bog standard message and via Skype phone too (not sure of the full extent of the deal). Other services include photo galleries.

From what I've been told it was originally targeted at teenage girls in the US and has since exploded in popularity.

**paul_oshea** · 24/02/2006, 10:06 AM

havent a clue about it just clicked on it there, good way to promote your site even if she is only 17

if you want to keep in contact meet up with them ffs.

**oconghc2** · 24/02/2006, 1:26 PM

in all fairness paul - difficult to meet up with mates who are on different sides of the world! suppose thats what its best for. Read about another one - myspace there in one of the papers - supposedly way bigger and famous ppl even put up there own pages - one bloke said hes met up with hundreds of ladies through it. Dirty basta*d!...gotta hand it to him though!!!

**klein4** · 24/02/2006, 1:51 PM

I think it is more clear after your last post how it is so "addictive"....

**Rover 2 U** · 24/02/2006, 2:09 PM

what way does it work. i tried adding myself to a college so i could do a search but i had to have a valid college address. i just wanted to have a look around to see what people were posting about themselves. any way aorund this?
