Old English transitioned into Middle English over a long period of time; there's no single date you can point to and say, "That's the last person to speak Old English."
None. Shakespeare did not speak Old English. He spoke and wrote in Modern English, and although some Modern English words come from Old English roots, he probably would not recognize them in that form.

Old English is characterized by its use of runes and its similarity to other Germanic languages. It is also known for its inflections, such as noun cases and verb conjugations. The vocabulary of Old English is different from modern English and may contain words that are no longer in use.
In the old days the English created the imperial system (the us still use this system). But nowadays they use the metric system.
It's hard to say exactly why the language uses the letter so frequently, especially since Proto-English (Old Old English) and Old English use the letter so infrequently. Although Latin lightly influenced Old English, and Old Norse strongly did, the letter e did not come into so much use until the arrival with the French. Anglo-Norman English, or Middle English, is where the e comes into great use - first, because of the French ties, and second, because the language's speakers and writers tended to tack the letter, and its sound, on pretty much everywhere. Still, the widespread use of the letter e comes from the French influences on the language.
Old English borrowed the Latin alphabet (which we use today) around the 9th Century.
