Prince William, Kate Middleton and Twitter

News of the engagement of Prince William and Kate Middleton spread across global media houses like a wild fire. Interestingly, Clarence House, the official residence of The Prince of Wales, The Duchess of Cornwall, Prince William and Prince Harry, made the Royal announcement to the world through Twitter. This will be the first time that a major world announcement has been initially made through the social media.  This is clearly a sign of the times.
