Simon McGarr of Digital Right Ireland fame, asked me to write a piece explaining the hideously compelling phenomena that is Bebo, for his webzine ‘Tuppenceworth.ie. You can find the article here.
Also DRI have finally gotten around to sticking up a video of the talk that Suw Charman of the UK ‘Open Rights Group‘ gave on digital rights in TCD several weeks ago. She’s a fascinating speaker, and was kind enough to come on Technolotics the following day. You can find the video of her TCD talk here.
Thanks for the Article. It’s already been referenced as the zenith of Bebo thought by TCAL.
Or at least, I think that’s what they were saying.
Hehehe!
And now you’ve been cited by Dr. John Breslin on Newstalk 106 in his interview on Bebo for your idea that part of Bebo’s facination is its lack of a search facility.
Instant success.

Instant success as Simon McGarr said, since the article was just written two days ago, and this is yet another example of online material from blogs finding its way into the mainstream media very quickly.)
