Betty Dodson with Carlin Ross
Better Orgasms. Better World.
Talk about an inspiration. This woman has inspired me to get my own facebook page - but maybe not.
A 103-year-old woman has become Britain's oldest user of Twitter - after she got bored of Facebook. Ivy Bean, who lives in a care home in Bradford, has 4,800 friends on Facebook, reports The Sun.
But she now prefers Twitter and recently posted: "I'm enjoying Twitter and having my photo taken - and I'm looking forward to Deal Or No Deal." Ivy's enthusiasm is spreading among her friends at Hillside Manor care home in Bradford.
Manager Pat Wright said: "All the residents are taking a leaf out of her book. Four signed up for computer college.
"Others have joined Facebook or surf the net and enjoy themselves with ten-pin bowling on the games console."
Ex-mill worker Ivy got a helping hand to smooth her switch to Twitter by calling in IT experts The Geek Squad.
Boss Martin Dix said: "It's brilliant to help someone as inspirational as Ivy to get started and teach her about Twitter. She shows others that you shouldn't be frightened of technology."
