Monarch Family, Latest High-Profile YouTube Contributor

The Queen of England, Queen Elizabeth II become the latest high-profile YouTube contributor, she posted a 1969 reception for British Olympians, the first such clip to be posted by a British monarch.

The clip turned to be the Monarchy’s official YouTube channel, which was launched in late 2007 with a Christmas message from the Queen.

In 1976, the Queen became one of the first people in the UK to send an email during a visit to an army base and she later personally recognized Tim Berners-Lee for his contributions to the country. Those actions displayed her willingness to embrace the technology of internet.

Aside from that, both the Queen and Prince Philip have been said to use e-mail regularly to keep in touch with their grandchildren, and earlier this year reports surfaced that the Queen was becoming an avid player of the computer game, Nintendo Wii.
