Got this funny feeling this request will fall on its arse.

Not that all on mn aren't young/hip/geeky enough or anything, oh no not mners we are soooo with the young whippersnappers.

Anyway.

Does anyone else find it really hard to search for individual groups?

I'm looking for a teacher colleague and it is a ROYAL PITA!!!!!

Any (unlikely) mners who regularly bebo please apply.

Sigh.

Never had any luck searching for anything on bebo, what do you mean individual groups?

S1ur · 10/01/2008 23:11

Scramble, yes their search is crap isn't it?

Ok individual group...

a teacher has had a group made about himself, not nice probably. but he's a bit erm, not technologically with it, shall we say.

So I've been looking for him. But all I have is his name. And it's stumped me. But I had this problem searching for dp, who also has had so called fan club made and only found him by knowing title of group.

Do you know any other way of searching? do they open to google like facebook have decided too?

I hate their search facility. I have a bebo account, but I only use it to check up on what is on dd's account!

nodder · 10/01/2008 23:23

I would try going through someone else.
For eg, if looking for Nodder, I might look up x school which (for eg)scramble goes too, find scramble, who is a friend of slurs who is a friend of nodder.

It just doesn't work well does it. And I'm generally good at searching net for shite.

Yep they should sort it.

SO I've not missed anything you type in search box whatever, you can search under different subtitles like people/groups etc or you can name search but unless you have acutal full name a name search is likely to be crap.

oh well.

Yes spent ages going through connection type searches. know dps fan club so went from there, but apparantly many of his fans are not yet fans of the geography teach.

Poor bloke, the stuff they say can be really crappy, dp's stuff is ok but still a couple of arseholes thinking they are 'gangstas' [mmm]

I have only got freinds through other freinds bebos.

A freind was trying to find my bebo, put in my exact bebo name and it still didn't comeup with anything.

Have you seen the thread I did here on cyber bullying. here

S1ur · 10/01/2008 23:48

No hadn't seen thread, will look now.

But at a glance its about pupils right? This is a major issue and people are seemingly beginning to recognise it and begin to think about tackling it.

Teacher cyber/alternative media is a bit dif. Not vunerable people but still harrassment.

A friend had a pupils boobs flashed at him in form of pic on mobile pphone, not a nicew postion to be in.
