At 10.30am GMT, the pope put his sacred hands to the Vatican’s holy iPad for the very first time, and wrote: “Dear friends, I am pleased to get in touch with you through Twitter. Thank you for your generous response. I bless all of you from my heart.” Now, there’s no easy way of putting this to his holiness but, as first tweets go, isn’t that a little bit rubbish?
