During the first week of June, her majesty Queen Elizabeth the second will be celebrating her 60th year on the throne, an event that everyone all over the world will be talking about.
Why so interesting? Well, shes the QUEEN of all of England; a nation with a rich history in monarchy, wars, triumphs, discoveries and generally leading the world into the future through examples of perseverance and nobility.
Queen Elizabeth has not only outlasted scores of prime ministers, presidents and leaders worldwide, but has endlessly touched on the lives of normal human beings throughout her reign.
From our great grandparents to todays generation (and possibly someday our children), we have all in been influenced by her majesty in some way or another, because everybody knows her, and whatever she does, for better or worse, will get us talking.
She plays the role of a massive icon, with kindly maternal instinct, always having exerted her influence during critically important events throughout recent history, be it the death of Princess Dianna or Mother Teresa, the 2005 terrorist bombings in London or the British invasion of the Middle East.
And she wont stop. She has now accepted to soldier on into the digital era, i.e. taking advantage of communicating with the world through digital media.
SOCIAL MEDIA
Needless to say her squires in public relations will be taking care of the administration involved, but this unrolling of the red royal carpet online testifies that she continues to remain an emblem of longevity and supremacy in our lives.
Her royal majesty can now be seen on Twitter, Youtube and Facebook with sites dedicated to her, her family and now her Diamond Jubilee. The massive volume of traffic our social monarch has drawn in speaks for itself.
So it would be correct to say that she has had a pivotal social impact on society, be it between individuals, groups or entire nations. At risk of having to use a pun to get the point across, she is the Queen of Social Engagement.
Everyone talks about the Queen, be it a conversation between two friends, a dinner party, the opening of hospital or the wagging of tongues at the United Nations. The Queen has led the forefront in all of the above.
The bottom line is she gets people talking. Her position and how she has carried it has made her talkable throughout her reign. Thats how she plays a huge role in social media. And through social media people will continue to talk about her, and maintain her importance in society. Is she important because shes talkable? If so then promoting talkability can make any kind of idea a hit with social media.
