Elizabeth Taylor is currently hospitalized for her what publicist has described as a "routine visit". But, the 77-year-old actress hasn't been laying around all day watching soaps on the TV. Instead, she's taken to the internet and has been regularly posting to her Twitter page, which is pretty hip for someone her age.

In response to the kind words that Kathy Ireland tweeted her, Taylor wrote:

"Thanks Darling for the beautiful flowers and all the prayers. Now can you just get my puppy past hospital security."

According to her spokesman, Taylor is expected to be leaving the hospital "soon."
