Twitter User Ivy Bean Turns 104 Years Old

There are lots of interesting people to follow on Twitter, but few as novel as @IvyBean104, who is celebrating her 104th birthday today.

While we can’t confirm if she’s Twitter’s oldest user, CNN has some more information on Bean, who resides in England and is also active on Facebook, where she has reached the site’s 5,000 friend limit. On Twitter, she currently has 32,000 followers – up significantly from the few hundred she had when she first tried out the service back in May.

Bean’s tweets are fairly typical of your average Twitter user, with updates about the TV shows she’s watching, TwitPics, the weather, and activities going on at the care home she resides in. Meanwhile, if this all seems a bit hard to believe, check out the video below where Bean shows her Twitter use to the world:
