World watch: "The iPod Pope"

From The Observer today

Blessings all round from the iPod Pope

"A year ago Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger was billed as 'God's rottweiler' when he succeeded the charismatic John Paul II. Instead he has surprised us with his taste for iPods, Prada and a gentle message of 'all you need is love'. Here, as Benedict XVI delivers his Easter message to the world from St Peter's, a leading Catholic writer judges his first year in office."

More on the Pope later.
