I am both croggled and delighted to see the CNN report that Buckingham Palace is going to post Queen Elizabeth II's Christmas message on YouTube. On the Queen's royal YouTube channel, no less! Complete with archived footage of her first Christmas message 50 years ago.
My YouTube search foo is weak -- I don't think I even knew about YouTube channels before 10 minutes ago. I've searched for individual videos by topics, but I've just now stumbled across YouChoose08. My searches for the Queen's channel aren't turning anything yet, but you can bet I'll keep looking. I wonder if they'll be adding a "Heads of State" channel category anytime soon. It would amuse me to see it in the alphabetical list right there between "Gurus" and "Musicians."
I love living in the future!

We stayed in the Bell Hotel, which was right across the street from the Abbey. On the next block there was a book store that I wish I'd bought a few things from, but it was early in the trip. A couple of streets over was the sheep meadow, where Cathy and I had an utterly peaceful walk, followed by pasties at a chip shop.
