New social profile site: bebo

This was the end result, or at least as far as I got tonight. I documented the entire process with screen shots and I will work to get the process posted tomorrow night.

My first impression of "bebo" is how easy it was to set up and it appears to have very clear navigation.

Unlike MySpace, it was VERY easy to select a theme and apply it to my profile. Within the matter of minutes I had a place to post photos, write a blog, post my favorites, and have my own url address if I wanted to make my profile public. So far, I think they have done a nice job with security and warnings about posting a public url. It will be interesting to see what sort of applications I will be able to add to my "bebo" site. I tabbed through over 100 pages of themes. I can't imagine how much content I will find when I really begin to look. So far it seems to be a nice marriage between the MySpace pages and the facebook page. I will go more into detail after I spend some time playing in bebo.
