A couple of people pushing 100 (and more!) are sharing their life experiences in the cyberspace.
Call it a sign of the times.
There is one of them who has captured the attention and, why not the affection of people from all ages and all walks of life around the world. She has been dubbed one of the most famous bloggers. Spain-native Maria Amelia Lopez has amassed more than 60,000 readers, since she started blogging in December 2006.
“No one pays any attention to old women any more. Not many people love us. But I was surprised by the Internet, because young people who were 18 years of age, or 14 or 15, tell me about their lives and what they think and ask my advice,” Lopez told Reuters.
The blog was a gift given to Lopez by her grandson Daniel on her 95th birthday. Because of her cataracts, Daniel takes her dictation when she blogs.
“I am enamored of this equipment,” she said in Spanish during a TV interview. “I have a passion for the Internet. I am engaged. You can know all that happens around the world.”
