Fun fact: Bebo seems to have been the leading and best-known social network in Ireland for quite a while, I'm guessing in much the same way that Orkut is big in Brazil. Alas Ireland is not as big as Brazil.

Bebo was huge in Ireland and the UK in around 2005-2007/8. Very few people here seemed to be interested in Myspace and Facebook was still limited to US High Schools. Around 2008 Facebook started gaining traction and Bebo disappeared.
