I heard this on Radio 1 earlier, Bebo is up for sale! Apparently only 5 million people use it, compared to the 100 million people who use facebook, that's not a lot! I got Bebo when I was about 11 and thought it was AMAZING! I then got facebook (my dad had it and wanted me to), I thought facebook was awful and froze it, but when people started to use it I unfroze it and I am totally addicted to it! I deleted my Bebo a few months ago, and I don't know anyone who still uses theirs! About 2 people in my class do not have facebook, even my teacher has it!

I'm in the same boat as you. I havnt used mine in ages but it's still there because I have some friends who still use it to talk to me that aren't on facebook. It won't bother me much if it shuts down, even tho I would like to get all my pictures off it first !

I didn't even realise there was still money to be made in Bebo.

There probably isn't! They said on Radio 1 that it might not sell I think ;)

thanks, I was on bebo for a very long time and to be honest was 1 of the last in my group of friends to sign up to Farcebook.

I really don't understand this. Bebo in my opinion was always way much better, had a much more fun feel to it and FB is well, formal and boring. I would be only too happy to delete my FB and never join it again but sadly people have this stupid view that it is more mature so sadly I'm gonna be seeing my friends list on Bebo go down and down as more and more delete their accounts. I have no interest in its stupid groups or fan pages, and in particular I neither need nor want to know every time 1 of my contacts joins another group or plays bloody farmville.

As well as that, I also see loads of people with hundreds of contacts on their page, do you really know these people? or are they people who once went to your school and looked at you in the dinner hall 1 lunchtime? Several of my contacts have hundreds whereas I have about 50, and even at that I need to have a clear out and bin off those who I dont really have much to do with.

I just don't get it, it is no better than any other "social network" site out there, and the people on it are in no way "cooler", or more mature just because they are on there instead of Bebo.

Not impressed with censorship

You're a funny girl. :|

It's okay. I can deal with being forgotten.

Ahh well thankyou ;)

Actually, it's probably better you are forgotten, if I were to remember you, it would remind me of someone else.. :/ Not someone you would like to be compared to..

      Going Home with Vick, Katie and Jamie

      He’s definitely gotten better and the show has sounded fine this week. I think it been at its best when it’s been Katie and Jamie or Vick and Katie. Vick and Jamie are ok together, but I do think the show sounds better when it’s Vick and Katie and therefore I still don’t really understand the point of the trio.    Jamie is, however, a lot better than Danny Beard!

      The RAJAR coming on later this year reflecting later summer to autumn will be interesting to how it reflects Matt and Mollie in afternoons to the revised changes on radio 1’s new music slots and the schedule re-shuffling Radio 3 introducing a new slate of programmes. Then, later on this year have speech radio stations having domestic political coverage of the election but also America’s presidential election.

      I actually caught snippets of today’s show, and I found it much better than the last time I listened. I have made it no secret that I like Jamie on the radio, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Matt & him together last year. People have criticised him for not being relatable, but I have to agree with the comment above that I have always found him a naturally warm person to listen to. Maybe the going home set up was something that needed settling in and things are starting to take shape.  It must have been difficult for him joining an established duo in Vick & Katie to begin with.  Jamie was great on something songs today, fully engaged in the caller and sounded like a real presenter. Maybe he is doing as a lot of us hoped and really learning as he goes, how to do it properly.

      Agree with this. The anti-Jamie feeling was IMO quite influenced by the negativity around him replacing Jordan, since Jordan was exceptional and also universally loved. When people mention Danny and Jamie in the same sentence about bad hiring decisions I almost choke - Jamie may not be perfect but he's several leagues better than Danny already and has bags of potential. Danny is poor and has shown zero potential...

      Jamie started 4 March, and the figures only going up to 31 March, so it isn't reliable. But it has shown the numbers have dropped in afternoons compared to last quarter. It looks like it's Capital's gain.

      Do these audience figures reflect Jordan leaving and Jamie replacing him?

      I think Jamie is really starting to settle into the role well. He comes across as really warm, and genuinely invested in the listeners when he’s talking to them which is nice. I think he’s building a really great relationship with Vicki and Katie too. His recent great company podcast is great too, where he has quite a deep chat with someone new each week. He’s clearly a very genuine person and I think he has some real potential.

      Most probably. But do wonder what the future of the relax themed programmes will be when they officially wind down that service.

      I think it's just to replace Wind Down presents... which was in that timeslot, and I'm guessing Chillout Anthems was just a buffer since it'll still be played at 06:00 on Sundays.

      With listening on the U.K. for the industry in general it is good overall as most stations reach is on the up and shows radio to be more sustainable and stable outlet than linear televisions channels. This RAJAR I think with the increase shift to DAB+ the BBC will be able to say it has it’s audiences for the proposed new stations it wishes to launch and think the new innovative ideas that it seems Jack himself can take credit for on the new music show think the younger under 30 gen z demographic could increase se in that time-slot.

      It's made it into the Daily Mail as another reason to bash the station. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13417631/bbc-radio-2-facebook-tiktok-instagram.html

      I expect that the axing of Chill Out Anthems may be related to the decommissioning and shutfdown of Radio 1 Relax. I assume soon BBC could announce or make official when it’s going to be shutdown

      The next RAJAR will be putting a lot of pressure on Aled. Will his decisions over Danny Beard and Jamie Laing and to lose Jordan North pay off? If not, it is likely bosses will be looking for his successor.  I am interested to know what fans of the station think?  Ian Chaloner who worked for Greg, Scott and Grimny before rising through the ranks must stand a chance. He is now mainstream editor.  An outsider choice but Greg's former producer Chris Sawyer would be great. He has the creativity and has held the ship well on breakfast. Although I know he is no longer with them.
