Generation Selfie And How Entrepreneurs Are Cashing In

Snapping selfies has become a national pastime, with everyone from PaulMcCartney and Warren Buffet to Ellen DeGeneres getting in on the act (sometimes unintentionally). Not everyone is a huge fan of the trend, as many folks don’t truly want to see people they know deliver multiple personalized updates about every little thing they do each day. However, the selfie fulfills a basic need in a lot of people, even if it’s a narcissistic one. Part of the reason for the rise in apps like Instagram, Vine and Snapchat, is the selfie. Even more addicting, those programs have filters that can change a picture’s coloring to match it more to the desires of the people who took it.
