The Good, The Bad, The Selfie: Curating Yourself for the Web

Abstract

The internet seems to be constantly inventing new ways in which we can present ourselves to the world. From the early days of Myspace to today when Instagram and Snapchat reign supreme, the curation of the self identity has moved from the real world to the virtual space. Curation of the image has become a 24/7 unpaid job, and the engine driving it is the all-powerful selfie.
