What happened to Bebo?

Currently I live in West London - I am 14 years old and I do keep up with the current trends. In Year 7 the prime website to be on was Bebo, I mean you could customize your own skin, add photos and tag them, draw pictures on your friends wall, and give them love! But what happened - why is AOL who brought the company on March 13, 2008 for a costly $850 million saying that it was not worth the investment, they also said that they are planning to sell or take the site down as soon as May 2010. 

I can tell you why: the interface. The interface that Bebo had was very crowded and didn't look very smart and elegant at all - as we grew up from year to year we matured in our tastes and got bored of the layout very quickly.

But indeed, as you should have already guessed; the overall answer to this question is Facebook. As I said everyone's tastes matured so we wanted something new, at the time Facebook was going mainstream and was very simple to use. As we grew older all of the new Year 7's to the school saw what everybody was using, and skipped the "Bebo" stage.

I hope this story was informative to you, as you can see I am a new writer here at SocialBlog and I am looking forward to staying here and being a writer. Thank you for reading!
