Kimberly Vargas: Who takes selfies?

After analyzing all the data and information gathered from the website selfiecity, I came to the conclusion that women take more selfies than men. Majority of the selfies taken also display happiness and content rather than gloominess. It surprised me, however, to see that New Yorkers don’t take as many selfies as other countries such as Russia or China. It also became evident that New Yorkers aren’t as “satisfied” or happy in comparison to residents of Bangkok. According to the dataset on the website, Bangkok women had a larger scale of happy selfies than the rest of the analyzed cities. That goes off to show and further prove the theory that New Yorkers are quite stressed and depressed people. Because of the noise and fast pace of life, we experience distress quite more often. That could serve as an explanation to the findings in my opinion. Overall, I believe the information was quite accurate and it also helped to become more aware of little details like such.
