The Queen claims own YouTube channel (toronto star)

I wonder if Charles would have come up with this?
"The Queen, considered an icon of traditionalism, launched her own special Royal Channel on YouTube on Sunday. (...) 'The Queen always keeps abreast with new ways of communicating with people,' Buckingham Palace said in a statement. 'The Christmas message was podcast last year.' The palace said, 'She has always been aware of reaching more people and adapting the communication to suit. This will make the Christmas message more accessible to younger people and those in other countries.'"
- the original 1957 TV broadcast is up, and worth watching.
