QuoteWhen the second son of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, Prince Andrew took to Twitter, he became the first member of the Royal family to set up a profile in his own name and now counts almost 50,000 tweeters as followers.

Breaking the Royal family mould, HRH The Duke of York also has an official Facebook profile. He said his foray into the world of social media was a way of informing others of what he was doing and connecting with how young people communicate.

The Duke said he was not afraid of any unwanted media attention after he created the account, as the move was more about "what was right".
