A very quiet and fascinating move. @Bebo_Official was once a streaming tool (think SLOBS or OBS) then pivoted into organizing/managing esports tourneys.

They were a good team, with a good product, that cared about the community. Twitch needs more folks like them on their roster https://t.co/zeXamCn9wP

Remember Bebo? It's been through a lot of ups and downs, but at the end of it all, this is a very interesting exit. Small price, big buyer and long story that plays into the bigger opportunity with game streaming and where esports fits into that. https://t.co/Kv4qqEnIpU

Remember Bebo? AOL bought it for $850 million but it never went anywhere and the founders bought it back. Amazon just bought it for $25 million https://t.co/3OwCgDQO3q
