92歲的英國女王伊麗莎白二世本週四(3月7日)在Instagram上發表了她的第一條信息,記錄了她到倫敦科學博物館進行尋祖之旅的活動。
她沒有選擇自拍照作為與社交媒體分享的內容,而是分享了一封19世紀數學家、計算機先驅查爾斯–巴貝奇寫給維多利亞女王丈夫阿爾伯特親王的信。
伊麗莎白二世在@TheRoyalFamily的官方賬戶上寫道,她在博物館用觸摸屏iPad發送了這條信息「今天,當我參觀科學博物館時,我發現一封來自皇家檔案館的信,寫於1843年,是寫給我的曾曾祖父阿爾伯特親王的。」
女王伊麗莎白二世繼續說道:「今天,我很榮幸地瞭解了兒童電腦編碼計劃,我在科學博物館發佈了這篇Instagram帖子,這似乎很適合我。科學博物館長期以來一直倡導技術、創新,並啓發了下一代發明家。」

Today, as I visit the Science Museum I was interested to discover a letter from the Royal Archives, written in 1843 to my great-great-grandfather Prince Albert. Charles Babbage, credited as the world’s first computer pioneer, designed the “Difference Engine”, of which Prince Albert had the opportunity to see a prototype in July 1843. In the letter, Babbage told Queen Victoria and Prince Albert about his invention the “Analytical Engine” upon which the first computer programmes were created by Ada Lovelace, a daughter of Lord Byron. Today, I had the pleasure of learning about children’s computer coding initiatives and it seems fitting to me that I publish this Instagram post, at the Science Museum which has long championed technology, innovation and inspired the next generation of inventors.

她隨後還簽署了「Elizabeth R」的署名。
2014年,女王在科學博物館首次展示了她的推特技能,發佈了她的第一條推特。
英國《衛報》評論稱,白金漢宮總是急於強調女王過去的科技成就。助手們指出,早在1958年,她就從布里斯托爾打了第一個長途電話到愛丁堡。早在互聯網網進入千家萬戶之前,她就成為首位使用網絡發送「電子郵件」的君主。
最近,她在訪問谷歌位於倫敦的辦公室時,將一段視頻上傳到YouTube上。一年前,她在YouTube上推出了第一個官方的英國王室頻道。
