The Queen Broadcasts on YouTube

If you wanted to know just how far social media has come over the past year, look no further than the Queen’s Royal Channel on YouTube. This year Queen Elizabeth II will broadcast her 50th Queen’s Message this year but the difference will be that people  will be able to view the broadcast on YouTube – probably a little after it is Broadcast Live on UK terrestrial TV. The Royal Channel itself went live at one minute past midnight last night and will, like all other YouTube videos be available for people to leave written and video comments. For those who are interested, there are broadcasts from 1957 and some rare footage rarely seen before on teh channel.
