104-Year-Old Twitter Fraud
It turns out that IvyBean04, the charming elderly Tweeter we met Friday, was set up by a tech company, and now the internet is in a tizzy. If you like your Tweeters authentic, I am sure there is a lovely 80something out there just waiting to be found. I am still rather charmed by Ivy Bean.

Actually, I take it back. It was obvious from all the stories that there was a tech company (and press releases) involved. But this is a real person, who's actually 104 years old, and who's actually using Twitter. Seems like a case of TechCrunch protecting themselves over some imagined slight.
