I believe we take selfies when we are in a moment of feeling good about ourselves, and you think to yourself "I should take a selfie."I don't take selfies often because me personally, I find selfies to be feminine, but when I do I know it's because I know it's a moment I have to. I always like taking selfies when I have good lighting.

I think the selfie culture could connect to "Big Mother Is Watching You". I say this because that reading talks all about the evolution of fitness trackers. The same way fitness trackers evolved, so did selfies. Selfies never really were that big until "big" apps like Snapchat and Instagram were out. When people began taking selfies it was a simple one with no filter or a filter that changes the lighting only. On the other hand, when you take a selfie now you have all these filters and apps to edit and change yourself to appear better to others who Donn't know what you really look like. You could even get someones location from a selfie and see the date and time the selfie was taken.

This compares to the evolution of fitness trackers because they started off as a simple device to track running and exercise. Now fitness trackers are used for all kinds of things like sleep stats, speeds, and even manslaughter cases. This just goes to show the evolution of technology and the room for improvement we have and are finally acting upon.
