The royals find their way onto Twitter

LONDON -- Britain's royal family has extended its kingdom further into cyberspace and joined Twitter -- but don't expect Her Majesty to tweet.

Buckingham Palace, which already has a significant online presence, said Friday that it has set up a Twitter account to alert royal watchers to what's happening with the family.

A palace spokeswoman says the account won't be used to air personal opinions.

The queen launched Buckingham Palace's Web site in 1997. She also has her own YouTube channel.

"It is so nice to see different popular people and even a royal family to use Twitter."
