The aim of the page will be to inform it followers of about royal events and ceremonies, searchable on a UK map. We will also be able to add her majesty as a friend and virtually 'poke' her.
Its seems there is no stopping Facebook, from a university students way of contacting his friends, Facebook has become almost religious to some of its users. Nowadays after a night out, the pictures are uploaded before your hangover kicks in. Statuses are updates hourly by some, and we now know more about our friends than ever. Consider this: Before Facebook I could have told you one of my best friends works for a radio station in Manchester and studied at Salford university. Now we have Facebook, in the click of a button I could tell you one on my best friends works for a radio station in Manchester, ate a marmalade sandwich for breakfast this morning, likes Lynx deodorant and is about to cook a pizza for dinner, amazing ay!
The only criticism I have to social networking in general, is that I feel it is impeding real contact with people face to face or by phone. I no longer need to call my friend from Manchester, I know EVERYTHING that he has done today, the anecdote about the ticket inspector on his train this morning would probably have made for a good conversation, but as it is now his status, no need.
But still, nice to see Her Majesty getting involved with the digital age, before long the next G8 summit will be held over Facebook chat!
Anyway, off to up date my status: Gary Rivers is: Just updating his blog.
