As an elder millennial I remember a time you had to break out an actual camera, with actual film, then wait for that film to be developed before you could see how cool (or not cool) you looked in a selfie. And, oh - remember mirror selfies?!

Then digital cameras came around and it was much easier to style your side-swiped bangs and grab a sweet pic for your MySpace profile...

Now, of course, we're all walking around with cameras in our hands all the time. And it sounds like Michiganders are really into snapping pics of themselves.

Spinbet analyzed posts from Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube to determine which Americans were taking snaps and sharing selfies the most in the country. It's a timely study as well considering today (June 21) is National Selfie Day!

They found that Michigan is the ninth most selfie-obsessed state, with a total of 25,000 online mentions for the world "selfie" over the past twelve months.

Florida comes in as the No. 1 most selfie-obsessed state with 123,000 mentions. Texas clocks in at No. 2 with 109,000.

For whatever reason, only 46 states are ranked. North Dakota comes in as the least selfie-obsessed state with 1,067 mentions.

(Interesting tidbit - did you know the first selfie was taken in 1839? According to National Today, the first selfie is widely credited to Robert Cornelius, an American chemist and founding father of photography. He sat still for 10-15 minutes to create the first intentional self portrait 185 years ago.)
