This is a bit off topic, but definitely entertaining. Just after midnight last night, the royal family opened the official Youtube website http://www.youtube.com/theroyalchannel. The royal family Youtube site which promises to be updated frequently, features both recent and archive footage of the Queen and the royal family.

Other notable news is that Queen Elizabeth II’s traditional Christmas speech will be available as a podcast on the British monarchy’s official Web site www.royal.gov.uk says the Associated Press.
