The Queen has relaunched her website at a Buckingham Palace reception in the company of the world wide web's inventor, Sir Tim Berners-Lee.
The royal site, which started in 1997, now includes more video material as well as historical documents.
Queen Victoria's journal in which she describes trying out Alexander Graham Bell's new invention, the telephone, is to be among the new features.
About 250,000 people around the world visit the site each week.
The Queen stood in front of a bank of nine screens and clicked a remote control to re-launch the site.
The Monarchy site's homepage appeared showing a range of simple menus and tabs which it is hoped will make it easier to navigate.
