People around the world will have the chance to witness one of the most important events of the year if not that of the decade. The latest gossips reveal that the Royal wedding will be broadcast live on YouTube. Check out the details and inspiration behind this mass-appealing plan of the organizers.
The royal wedding is one of the
hottest subjects that keeps the world on its toes. Fans of the
royal family are keen to find out more about the guests, the
apparels along with other preparations. Therefore, it is a real
thrill to find out that Kate Middleton and Prince William
decided to make their BIG day one of the most interactive events of
the decade.
Besides the fact that- as the Telegraph reveals- the public will be
informed about the most important events with the help of Twitter, flickr and Facebook, we also have the chance
to watch the complete ceremony on YouTube. The future bride and
groom confessed that they are ardent fans of social networking,
therefore, it is extremely important for them to share their once
in a lifetime experience with fans and audience.

The online coverage of the event on April 29 is secured by a
live blog provided by Google which will be perfectly synchronized
with the live footage. This facility will allow the audience to
click on different links that offer more information on the wedding
service as well as other special moments included in the whole
ceremony.
The real idea behind this lovely project is revealed by the
spokesman for St James's Palace, “We wanted people to be able to
interact with the royal wedding as they watch it.
“Prince William and Catherine Middleton are like any other people
their age in respect of social media. They are Facebook users and
YouTube users…and their intention has always been that their
wedding should be accessible to everyone.” (Telegraph.co.uk)
Fans will have the opportunity to watch the royal wedding live on
YouTube starting from 10am, exactly one hour before the complete
ceremony, to 2 pm, after Kate and William will appear on the
balcony of the Buckingham Palace. Text commentary will be also
added to the live blog together with other information and useful
links.
The spokesperson also added that, “This will be the first time a
live blog has run alongside a live stream on YouTube for any
occasion... For example, as the carriage procession passes Clarence
House, a link will appear which provides historical information on
Clarence House.”
Furthermore, the public is also invited to post video messages of
congratulations to the royal couple on a 'wedding book' launched by
YouTube. Fans can also relate how they celebrate the great event
through the already available Facebook site of the royal family.
Keep an eye on this remarkable event using your favorite social
networking sites.
