Twitter: For Young And Old
A quick blog today, and it’s dedicated to everyone who thinks that social media, and Twitter in particular, are strictly a young person’s game. Earlier this week, Ivy Bean, considered to be the world’s oldest “Tweeter,” died in England at the age of 104. It’s safe to assume she didn’t come of age as a technological savant, so it goes to show that anybody can learn it. Granted, the benefits for business are still being debated, but the “I’m too old” excuse surely doesn’t work anymore thanks to Ms. Bean.
There are some reports that this account was a hoax perpetuated by the Geek Squad, but even if that’s true, the fastest-growing Facebook demographic these days is women over 55, thanks to tech-savvy ladies like Ms. Bean.
There are a lot of MHEDA Members on Twitter, but a lot more who aren’t. Don’t get left behind because you don’t understand Twitter!
