"Update: Another story today says that Bebo has become the most trafficked site in Ireland.  Don't read too much into it, though: the source is Alexa.\nBebo will toot its own horn on Wednesday, putting out a release to say that it has been named the \u2018Hottest Overseas Technology Prospect\u2019 at the UK Technology Innovation &amp; Growth Forum 2007.  \nThe award is given to the hottest pre-IPO overseas technology company that has been successful in the UK (heh, you think there will ever be a Bebo IPO?).  Other contenders for the award included FON, Sulake (makers of Habbo Hotel) and the virtual world of Second Life.  \nWhat's the significance?  Not really sure, but one stat stood out - Bebo claims to have more than 9 million UK users.  That's in a country with 60 million people - do 1 in 6 Brits really have Bebo accounts?  Sounds odd to me.  The total user count is 31 million, they say."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
