GMI's NetPanel in Bebo

Bebo have gone live with their apps developer program. It's essentially a clone of the Facebook API, so porting existing facebook applications is very easy. Below a screenshot from a prototype app integrating GMI's NetPanel2 panel management software into Bebo - a clone of the NetPanel facebook prototype I first described last year in this post.

I imagine this could be of particular interest to brands or agencies wanting to connect with teenagers in the UK, given Bebo's dominant position in the UK teen/youth market (and I even speak from personal experience here - it's the de-facto standard way of sharing photos, blog posts etc. for my daughter and most of her friends).
