Vatican Information Service today announced the arrival of the Vatican YouTube Channel, promising to update it every day with a couple of two minute videos taken from CTV's daily footage. The Vatican launched their website in 1995, and given how fast technology has grown since then I'm quite surprised this hasn't happened before.
One question still remains though: Is that all they're going to upload?
Clearly the Vatican just don't understand the point of YouTube. How about some real YouTube style Vatican videos. A video of the Pope playing Zelda on his new Nintendo Wii, being thrashed by Cardinal Arinze? A video from the front seat of the Pope Mobile breaking the speed limit? Perhaps even some old episodes of Father Ted just to see if Hat Trick Productions come after him and take them offline for copyright infringement.
Seriously though the possibilities are there for Godcasts on iTunes too. After all, we know the Pope has an iPod. Any speculation on the playlist?
