Keep Track of The Queen

The UK Royal Family's website has been updated to include the most technologically-advanced bells and whistles, including a Google map to track where HM The Queen is at any point. The Royal Family also has a You Tube channel and they post very interesting little tidbits, including a little piece last week about the snow in London.

  2. I wonder if the Queen would Twitter or Flickr? Join Facebook? I would be her friend.

  7. LOL! I was just trying to imagine The Queen on Facebook:

    HM The Queen is...

    -getting ready to go to another ribbon cutting ceremony.
    -wishes the changing of the guards weren't quite so loud today. Migraine.
    --had bangers, mash, and mushy peas for dinner AGAIN.

    ;-)

  8. JAPRA, heh!

    I'm waiting for Prince Charles to start using Twitter. And I say that seriously. He's involved in all sorts of causes and Twitter is a way to build awareness and give people things to think about. It would be a good means of communication for him.

  10. Karena... they're actually pretty advanced. They've had a website since 1997 and it's always been very well designed and has huge viewership. Their YouTube channel is the third most visited in the UK.

    I've always found Europeans to be much more wired than we are in the US.
