Rejoice! For unto us (the British nation) is born an as-yet unnamed son. Hurrah! And Twitter, of course, has been celebrating this momentous event in the time-honoured fashion - namely, by making jokes and generally being silly. Gawd bless it. Here are just some of HuffPo's favourite funny responses to the royal birth so far.

The public now supports the royal charter on press regulation endorsed by parliament ahead of the alternative drawn up by the press industry by a factor of four to one, according to a new YouGov poll conducted for the Media Standards Trust. The poll comes as the privy council tries to resolve the future of media regulation, including choosing between the system proposed by the industry and the one supported by parliament.

The birth of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's baby boy provided Mail Online with its biggest ever audience, while UK traffic to newspaper and other media websites rose almost 50%, making it the biggest online news day of the year so far. Mail Online recorded 10.57 million unique users on Monday, according to unofficial internal figures - 1 million more than its previous published record achieved covering the Boston marathon bombing in April - with its biggest ever hour of traffic (1.09 million unique users) coming from 8pm to 9pm when the birth was officially announced.

The Guardian is giving republican readers the option to screen out royal baby coverage on its website. The front page of the paper's website lets readers the opportunity to click a 'Republican?' button to replace coverage of the Duchess of Cambridge going into labour with non-royal news. The website, the second largest in the UK after Mail Online, also offered readers the same opportunity for the royal wedding and last year's Diamond Jubilee.

The platform lets users curate content from Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, Tumblr or specific URLs and displays the content in an stream that plays automatically. "We realised how hard it was to do something meaningful with social media content," Mihaly Borbely, co-founder of Brickflow, told Journalism.co.uk of the company's genesis. "You have all these curation tools but they don't let you build a visual narrative, you just get a linear feed."

The Times has issued a correction to its front page headline following Andy Murray's Wimbledon win after accidentally erasing four British women's victories from sporting history by declaring it the first win for Britain in 77 years. The correction on the "Murray ends 77-year wait for British win" headline said: "Since Fred Perry's 1936 victory in the men's competition, singles titles at Wimbledon have of course been won four times by British women, most recently Virginia Wade in 1977."

Herald Scotland had to issue an apology on its website on Monday morning due to complications from the overnight installation of a new computer system. In a statement titled "Sorry, we're facing production problems", the title said a "gremlin" was causing technical problems and the website's usual dose of news, sport, business and comment was affected.

David Cameron has announced as part of a wide range of measures plans to introduce an "opt-in" process for internet pornography. Under the proposals, households will have pornographic images and videos filtered out of their web search results unless they actively opt in to receive them. The Daily Mail has announced "victory" for its campaign, but other media commentators and technology experts have claimed that the plans are technically unworkable, as well as being morally ambiguous. Digital Spy rounds up comment from across the press herein.

New research has found that 64% of content marketers are planning to increase their budgets in 2014, according tocbronline.com. The study was carried out by both the Content Marketing Institute and the Direct Marketing Association UK. It found that only 3% of those involved in content marketing are planning to reduce their budgets next year.

Uniquely among UK national newspaper publishers, Guardian News and Media has avoided compulsory redundancies. And speaking in the wake of annual results which revealed a sharp reduction in losses, chief executive Andrew Miller said there are no plans for any more job cuts - voluntary or otherwise. Last year GNM sought to cut up to 100 out of 650 journalists. But in February it agreed a deal whereby 58 journalists (50 full-time equivalent positions) took redundancy and the NUJ agreed to find other ways to cut GBP7 million from the annual editorial budget.
