Webware 100 winner: Bebo
Bebo is a not just another MySpace, it's a one of the fastest growing and largest social networking Web sites on the Internet. Users can create their own profiles, and in typical social networking style, list favorite bands, pictures, and activities to share with friends on the service. Like competitor MySpace, Bebo is music-centric, and provides bands with ways to share their music using band profile pages.
What may be more interesting than the service itself is its history. Bebo was the top Google search query for all of 2006, according to the search engine's yearly zeitgeist. It's also the top-visited Web site in all of Ireland. Earlier this year it was also snatched up by AOL for a staggering $850 million.
