Maxine loves the Internets

New York Post Weird but True August 16, 2008

As if you needed more proof that Facebook has grown utterly uncool, a 102-year-old British grandmother has become the oldest person on the social-networking site.

Ivy Bean lives in a nursing home and has been using the site to keep in touch with family.
"I love being online, and it beats writing with a pen," she said.

She also enjoys posting under the name Maxine Weiss and other various sock puppets when venting her spleen. "Have that nice Ernie Borgnine give me a call."
