Magazine Article Assessment (Facebook)

Why Facebook Is the Future
(picture from article)
This Time magazine article is all about how social networks (mainly facebook) are changing the way we live. The article brings home the point that social networks like facebook connect people with one another with ease while at the same time keeping them apart. Although it doesn't say it outright the article hints that facebook causes more harm than it does good. The article is titled "Why Facebook is the Future" the future seems dim in the authors eyes. This is an authoritative article because TIME is a respected magazine with pro journalists. It is a good source that gives a lot of information on facebook and social networks. Would be useful in writing a paper on social networks.
