Selfie

If you have a few minutes, click over to the BBC and read The age of the tragic selfie.

It's very well written, and I appreciate that the author talks about the phenomenon without becoming self-righteous or belittling anybody.

  1. ...it was a good objective observation... but, I must be the one who would say that this is all much ado about nothing... I distinctly recall being able to order a piece of the Berlin Wall after it fell... my point being that I don't think I can classify the selfie phenomenon as the sign of the thoughtless who seek to glorify themselves... this is a behavior that can be stretched back to the beginning, I am sure... All I can say is that I think that it is beneath me and that I would rather read about the place or event and then share whatever knowledge I have gained with others...
