Word of the year 2013, Selfie

Postby jacktheking » 21 Nov 2013, 06:14

This thread should belong to the Off Topic - Everything Else however I felt that this is something for forums owner too..

I'm sure many of you should have heard about the ''Word of the year'' for 2013.

Selfie was first used in the 2001/2002 on a online forums. On 2004 in appear on a social media website, but it only become popular last year after someone use it on a social media.. What does this tell you? You know what I mean.

To be honest, I also dont know what is the meaning for Selfie till today.. LoL!

I think it is referred to a photo of someone taken by themselves, a "self shot" is called as selfie. But I did not know that it was first used on a forum.

I own a blog in a music niche and the artists are always posting "selfies" on their Instagram or Twitter accounts. People search for these selfies often so I usually reblog these pics and it definitely attracts visitors. I love how it actually became the word of the year!

A selfie is a self-portrait photograph or group photograph featuring the photographer, typically taken with a hand-held digital camera or camera phone. Selfies are often shared on social networking services such as Facebook, Google+, Instagram, Snapchat, Tumblr, Twitter and MySpace. They are usually flattering and made to appear casual. Most selfies are taken with a camera held at arm's length or pointed at a mirror, rather than by using a self-timer.

With so much war and bad things in the world, I'm glad that the word of the year is a harmless word.
Many people love taking selfies. I do not like much, but I like to see the selfies of others. :)
