Source Evaluation

1.  http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/how-your-cell-phone-hurts-your-relationships/
2. This source includes the affects on how cell phones are now damaging relationships with others around you.
3. Yes, this line of argument is well supported.  This source provides me with ways on how I can argue that cell phones are taking over.
4. With this source, I would be agreeing with the author.  She used a perfect example on going out to have a meal with a group of people but rather than having a conversation with the ones around them, they're glued to their phones.
5. The publication date is still fairly recent meaning it is relevant today.
6. Pretty much nails my topic.
7. Source being off the Internet could make you question its reasoning, but brings up interesting points.

1. http://www.pbs.org/mediashift/2007/10/how-cell-phones-are-killing-face-to-face-interactions295/
2.This source nails my topic right on with how cell phones are now affecting face to face conversations.
3. Yes, both well supported and useful.
4. Glasser's article, provides me with facts such as... people of all ages are becoming addicted to the use of their phone.
5. The publication date of the source is only a few years old which shows how much more of a problem technology is now causing in today's society.
6. This article provides the authors own thoughts as well as experiences.
7. Source being off the Internet could make you question its reasoning, but brings up interesting points.

1. http://elitedaily.com/news/technology/technology-is-destroying-gen-y/
2. This source is another nailing on my topic.
3. Yes, both well supported and useful towards my topic.
4. In Hassan's article, as I was reading, I caught myself catching a glimpse of myself in some of the things being said.  The constant checking of our phone has taken over us more and more each day.
5. The publication date about a year old, leaving it to be relevant.
6. As said before, I caught glimpses of myself in the reading.  It leaves me with quite a bit to talk about.
7. Source being off the Internet could make you question its reasoning, but brings up in interesting points.

1. http://elitedaily.com/life/why-your-cell-phone-is-ruining-your-life/
2. This source really illustrates today's society on the problems that have come about with technology.
3. This is again both well supported and useful for my topic.
4. Hudson illustrated a nice point.  He had said even in the busy streets of New York, it has now become quiet due to the use of cell phones.  Although he enjoys the peacefulness, it's rather strange that a busy city such as New York has become quieter throughout the years.
5. The publication date of the article is a little over a year old, keeping this source relevant to today.
6. This source is thorough in all that's said.
7. Could have been organized a bit better, but still brought up some great points.

1. http://www.home-remedies-for-you.com/articles/1769/wellness/brave-new-world-how-technology-has-come-to-take-over-our-lives.html
2. This source is quite useful to my topic.
3. Brings up a lot of supportive points to further in my topic.
4. Myers came up with some good points as well as providing stats in his work.
5. The publication date is recent and relevant.
6. I enjoyed the stats because it can be useful when writing my topic.  I also had enjoyed the points he made when saying technology has become a part of life to the newer generation.
7. Wasn't my favorite source but still agreed with the things said.
