A bit of useless
trivia for you … the oldest Facebook user in the world is 101-year young
Florence Detlor from Menlo Park in California.
Menlo Park is also
home to Facebook’s massive organisation (over 6,600 employees) and among its
most notable residents are Google founder Sergey Brin and folk singer, Joan
Baez.
However, for
Aussies, the most famous thing about Menlo Park is that it’s where Phar Lap
died in April 1932 … when Florence was just 21 years old.
