## The story

Phones finally had a camera on the front, and suddenly everyone was a portrait photographer. Kids found their best angle, their best light and their best almost-smile. Forty takes was normal. Group selfies required the person with the longest arm, and that person got very, very tired by the end of the party.

## Fun fact

Phones filled up so fast with nearly identical selfies that kids deleted apps just to make room for more faces.
