Bebo and Universal Music UK are set to launch The Secret World of Sam King about the adventures of a fictional employee of Universal who sets up his own record label from the post room. While mostly scripted, it will include plot contributions from the Bebo community. With this, Kate Modern, Sophia's Diary, and The Gap Year, Bebo is becoming as much a video destination as a social networking site...
Sofia's Diary - the hit web series from BeBo is making the jump to regular ol' TV. It is scheduled to air on Five's Fiver network at the end of April. Will it follow Quarterlife and generally be ignored? Or will it be the first big crossover hit? Who knows? (I don't like the series much - prefer Sanctuary and The Guild. Shows my geek credentials.)
