I am, grudgingly, rather impressed with Tony Blair's latest effort to embrace the cyberworld - he has recorded a video to welcome the new French President, in French, and posted it on Youtube for all to see.

When I looked, over 250,000 people had viewed it (though we dont know how many made it to the end).  You can make your own mind up by viewing it here.  Is Gordon Brown capable of doing the same thing?  Do feel free to post a comment.
