The news itself was broken to the public by the Royal Family Twitter account, which publicly announced that she "died peacefully" at 6:30 p.m. on the day.

The official accounts of the Royal Family also had to adjust — and act quickly — in the face of the news. In real time, people witnessed the speed with which the information arrived, posts were added, and titles changed. A statement from Prince Charles, now His Majesty the King, was posted with haste; the Twitter handles for Prince William and Kate Middleton were rapidly changed, including the addition of a title.

There are also specific official protocols for these accounts now. According to reports by Politico, many of the "immediate plans" following the monarch's death are directly related to social media. These plans include a digital halt for governmental accounts, meaning non-essential content will not be posted. Meanwhile, the UK government and Royal Family's website will display as states of mourning, emblazoned with statements on the home page alongside black banners honoring the Queen's death.
These actions are a testament to both the significance of social media and how many eyes are watching official handles and pages, always. This is largely new territory for the British monarchy, that actual policy must be invoked to rightfully commemorate the event. Digital and traditional protocols are seemingly at par with one another now, an indication of "institutions" like the Royal Family having to shift with the times.

As was the case with news of her death, the impact of the Queen on social media is applicable to her lifetime: online users memefied, discoursed, and revelled in the Queen — her public image, outfits, lifestyle, etc. — for years. During her reign, she became a subgenre of internet culture, almost ubiquitous to the meme cycle and digital conversations, making thousands of appearances in unrelated tweets and Instagram accounts.
With this digital documentation of her death, the experience also, and notably, became a shared one, both within the UK and globally. No matter what personal feelings one harboured towards the Queen or the Royal Family, we could all turn to social media and the internet for updates and commentary. In the midst of the historic moment, social channels became a sort of diary, making history in itself. Jokes, critiques, and reactions poured out on social media, with no time to spare, as an era came to an end.
