FIVE FACTS FROM THE SOURCE (Embedded): EX: After having known Edward for just a few short months, Bella admits that “it would cause [her] physical pain to be separated from him now" (Meyer 283).

Facebook was founded by Mark who originally planned for Facebook to be in the English language but, "by the end of 2008 it could be used in thirty-five language" (Kirkpatrick 275).

When Spanish edition of Facebook was available to users, "within four weeks, 1,500 Spanish speakers from around the world had created a full version" (Kirkpatrick 277).

Facebook gives individuals the opportunity to speak to others at any given time but, "when a father in Saudi Arabia caught his daughter interacting with men on Facebook, he killed her" (Kirkpatrick 279).

Many people have taken every chance they have to speak on social networking sites, but "governments around the world are struggling to figure out how to handle Facebook's users when they take advantage of its freedoms" (Kirkpatrick 279).

Facebook wasn't made to ridicule others or have the chance to lower self esteem, "Facebook is to give people tools that enable them to more efficiently communicate and thrive in a world in which more and more information surrounds us all no matter what we do" (Kirkpatrick 330).

Summary of Source (Three-Four Sentences of the Who, What, Where, Why, and How in your own words. NO OPINION):

Kirkpatrick speaks about the founder of Facebook and questions if the main reason he created Facebook was to earn money or if was a place for individuals to take advantage of their freedom of speech. David Kirkpatrick interviews the creator of Facebook to get answers.

Credibility of Source: 
Author or Editor: Who is the author? What training have they had? If there is no author, examine the editor.

Attachment: Does the author or editor have anything to gain from writing this, or is it simply informative? 

The author wrote this because it is his job as a journalist to figure out what is going on with social networking sites. 

Bias: Do you detect a bias (a favoring of either side) in the author's writing? 

David Kirkpatrick talks about the positive views of what Facebook has to offer but he also talks about individuals who are taking advantage of their freedom. There is not bias in his writing.

References: Does the author cite references in the writing? If so, do these add or take away from the credibility? 

Because David Kirkpatrick interviews Mark Zuckerberg who is the founder and creator of Facebook, he does cite references and includes them in his writing so it does add to the credibility of his book. It is not simply what he believes, but what he knows.

I plan to use this source in my project to help both support the negative affects of Facebook as well as backing up any counterarguments there are.
