According to the editors, the use of 'selfie' has increased by 17,000% in the past 12 months.
If prior words of the year are any indication, you'll probably forget 'selfie' by this time next year. Why? The previous four winners of Word of the Year:
2012 omnishambles
2011 squeezed middle
2010 big society
2009 simples
There's a 17,000% chance I haven't used any of those words or phrases ever.
