Fidel Castro Tweets

Fidel Castro tweets to over 100,000

It looks like Fidel Castro is doing good also in cyberspace. A Twitter account of Cuba’s ex-president has passed has 100,000 followers - arguably the first official Cuban-themed Twitter account to break that threshold.

The account, set up about a year ago, has sent more than 1,700 tweets with Castro's musings about world affairs, above all his fears that the world is headed for nuclear Armageddon, and his warnings that NATO is planning to invade Libya.

Only 2 percent of the island's population uses the Internet though, the lowest such figure in the Western Hemisphere.
