With the help of specially designed software that recognises sign language (ASL), and a 'chimp proof' adapted touch-screen, these leading scientists recently announced that the ape can communicate using more than 1000 symbols, adapted to the most popular features of the online social network.

A 20-year-old male chimpanzee named Albert was the first ape to join Facebook, the largest online social network.

You can see Albert´s profiles at:

Gives a new twist to that age old question, "ASL?"

If you put an infinite number of monkeys in front of an infinite number of keyboards sooner or later one of them will join facebook.

Believe me, he wasn't the first one on Facebook. Maybe he got sick of Myspace like the rest of us?
