The world's oldest Tweeter has died, after over 1,000 tweets documenting numerous fish and chip dinners, family visits and meeting Gordon Brown. Ivy Bean, a 104-year-old UK resident, amassed over 56,000 followers by tweeting her insights into life. Over the last few weeks, a care home manager kept followers updated as Ivy suffered from jaundice in hospital. "Ivy passed away peacefully at 12:08 this morning," the manager wrote in her last tweet. |

艾薇·比恩，全世界年紀最大的Twitter使用者，日前在英國辭世，享年104歲。比恩留下了超過1000條微博，細細感悟生活的一點一滴——無數次炸魚薯條的美餐，與家人的溫馨小聚，以及與戈登·布朗的會面。她的粉絲數量已經超過5.6萬。數周前，比恩罹患黃疸住院，微博只能由一名養老院員工代為更新。她的最后一條微博亦由他人代筆："艾薇于今天凌晨零時8分安詳辭世。"
*媒體評論
Despite Ivy having been unable to post for almost 2 months, the sight of "Ivy Bean" trending worldwide less than an hour after the announcement of her death seemed a fitting tribute to a woman whose warmth and simple enjoyment of life proved such a draw to so many. (The Guardian)
艾薇無法更新微博已近2個月。但是，她去世的消息傳出不到1小時，"艾薇·比恩"這個名字就已在全世界范圍內流傳。這是對她在天之靈的告慰。這說明，她傳達出的溫暖，以及對生活的質樸享受，已經感動了眾多碌碌世間人。(英國《衛報》)
