The so-called "World's oldest Twitter user" died today.  Ivy Bean, age 104 of Bradford, England, was a sprightly old gal who tweeted naughty 'n nice little tidbits on life at the care home to her over 57,000 followers daily, catching even the eye of British/Aussie pop star Peter Andre.  Andre reportedly checked in daily with his biggest fan during the recent illness that preceded her death.

I wish all grandmas were that cool.  Heck, I can hardly use PhotoShop.  RIP Ivy!

Way to go! What an amazing woman she must have been. I hope I can get to at least the age she got to and still be tweeting "naughty" tweets!!
