British Monarchy launches Youtube Channel

Just in time for the Queen's yearly televised Christmas message, Buckingham Palace today launched its own Youtube channel to broadcast this year's royal Christmas wishes. The Queen is hopeful that the new medium will make her Christmas message "more personal and direct" and reach younger audiences.

A nice PR move to make the royal family more attractive in the eyes of the younger generation.

I think people like John Howard, David Cameron, Kevin Rudd and the Queen need to be careful in using youtube in order to be "hip". Young people are just that - young, not daft. They know a desperate adult when they see one and would probably rather watch something less contrived.
