Anticipation

Coming into Christmas, I know we are all anticipating the Queen's Christmas message. But in the mess of Christmas day, who has time to stay glued to the TV or radio all day?

Never fear, this year HM is podcasting her message to the world (http://www.royal.gov.uk/output/Page5323.asp).

Can you imagine how on earth a staffer got the royals to agree to podcasting? Just the conversation would have been ackward.

"Your highness, I think we should consider putting your message online this year"
I don't understand, don't we do that on the website?
No, I was thinking a podcast
What?
Podcast, for iPod and the such
Why?
....

And on it would go ....

Glad that wasn't me!!!
