Selfie Time

I am going to dive right back into the blogosphere with one of the most beloved (and also most hated) types of photography that has taken the world of social networking by storm...selfies!

Celebrities (and plenty of us lowly plebs as well) have caused quite a stir with choice "selfies" posted on social networks such as Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.  "Selfie" was Urban Dictionary's Word of the Day on October 12, 2012.  

selfie (n.)

"A picture taken of yourself that is planned to be uploaded to Facebook, Myspace, or any other sort of social networking website.  You can usually see the person's arm holding out the camera in which case you can clearly tell that this person does not have any friends to take pictures of them so they resort to Myspace to find internet friends and post pictures of themselves, taken by themselves.  A selfie is usually accompanied by a kissy face or the individual looking in a direction that is not toward the camera."

However, I now present you with the best selfie ever taken - a true gift to humankind, featuring Meryl Streep and Hillary Clinton.
