The British Monarchy Online & The Royal Channel on YouTube

The British Monarchy has relaunched their official website complete with their already active YouTube videos from The Royal Channel. This is a great way to draw continued interest in the Royal Court, educate visitors on it’s history, and connect all of its many provinces. A perfect example of how to use the web to better connect and inform the general public.  I love the Google Map feature too. Where in the world is the royal court? Now you can find out online.

Cheers! All hail the Queen!

Does Gmail know about the new Xoopit Plugin?

Straight from the Xoopit Blog

” Xoopit for Gmail now lets Gmail users immediately see and set Facebook® status messages and view the profile photos of their Facebook friends while reading mail, using Facebook Connect.” Is this working for anyone? I have tried downloading it twice on more than one computer. Does it not work for Macs? Gmail’s blog makes no mention of this as if it’s unaware that they have this new functionality. What gives? I recall a few months ago when I first began using Xoopit with my Gmail it allowed you to post directly to Facebook. I have Xoopit photos on my Facebook profile as proof it once worked. Now all of a sudden Xoopit is acting like it’s brand new. The new  Xoopit plugin does allow you to do more than just post to Facebook with Gmail Chat integration, and if you want to get more info on this check the links below for that info or visit Xoopit’s blog.

If you have been able to get this plugin to work in your Gmail of recent drop me a line at sojournal@gmail.com and help me figure this out.
