From the round-the-clock stakeout outside St. Mary's hospital to the actual birth and even naming of Prince William and Kate Middleton's, the hashtag #RoyalBaby continues to thrive nicely online as millions of people around the world share their two cents (on in Twitter's case, 140 characters) as events unfold.
As of this writing, we know that the Royal Baby Boy, third in line to the throne of England, has been named George Alexander Louis. We also know that Kate Middleton's looks absolutely great even just after giving birth.
The comments on the hashtag are no doubt amusing enough to keep you scrolling and silently giving "kudos" to the one who started it all. Here's a look at what people are posting.
