If you were to invent of an example of how technology is making the modern world almost comically unrecognisable to previous generations of humans, you would find it difficult to top this for sheer simplicity and believability.

Chicken takes over Twitter account for fast-food chain
Betty the chicken has taken control of the Chicken Treat’s Twitter account for the last week.
Betty forms the tweets, mostly nonsensical words and characters, as she pecks at or walks over the keyboard.
The company will continue this exercise until Betty successfully tweets a five-letter word in English, which will apparently earn her a place in the Guinness Book of World Records.
On Thursday, she typed “bum” — which was close but didn’t win her the title.
No word yet if Betty is going to wind up in the fryer, but she and the stunt have helped grow the company’s Twitter account to almost 8,000 followers.
