Word of the Year... Selfie!

As you might know, the world-known Oxford Dictionary always choses one word as Word of the Year. This funny election has to do with how popular that word has become or else has attracted a huge interest during the year to date. This year's word (meaning 2013) is the word selfie, whose use has increased by (believe it or not!) 17,000%!!!
