18 differences between Bebo and Facebook kids today will never understand
1. On Facebook, if you like a song you can just casually share it with your friends whenever you please
2. On Bebo, you had to decide *one* song that went in your Flashbox that perfectly summed you up as a human being
3. On Facebook, you can now react with a ‘love’ on any damn thing you like
4. When Bebo started you had one love a day and giving it out was a big decision
5. On Facebook, you can put any image you like as your cover photo
6. While on Bebo, you had to choose from a selection of mortifying ‘skins’
7. On Facebook, your friends pop up on the left side of your profile in random order every time
8. On Bebo, you had to carefully select your top 16 friends like a politician selects allies

10. On Bebo, you chose an ‘other half’ which was usually your best friend until one of you started actually going out with someone and you had to awkwardly change it
