World’s oldest blogger?

IS a 107-year-old great grandmother of seven in Australia the world’s oldest blogger? For that matter, she might be the world’s oldest YouTube user.

You can check out her blog and read the Metro.co.uk article.

Here’s an excerpt:

Her blog, The Life of Riley, also reveals how she left Broken Hill in the 1920s as a single mother with three children in tow.

However, Mrs Riley admits she has ‘got no idea about computers’ and relies on friend and film maker Mike Rubbo, who suggested she start a blog, along with another friend from her nursing home, to help post them.

She told an Australian newspaper: “Mike asked me for little things that I remember, and I know that the people will like them because they’re not rude or stupid or anything.

“I’m sure they do enjoy them because of the replies I get. I get some real good replies. I’ve made a lot of friends by doing the blogs - thousands.”

Here are two of the YouTube clips that recount Olive’s story.

What do you think? And, hmm, just wondering now — how old is the oldest blogger in the Philippines? Anybody know? :)
