Introducing Facebook Timeline: The End of Free Will

The video you have the chance to see here is on one in the popular comedy series on Cracked.com. If you never heard of it before, or better put, if you have been living under a rock for the past ten years, Cracked is a humor website with over 300 million monthly page views. The website was founded in 2005, by Jack O’Brien and is currently owned by E. W. Scripps. It is descended from Cracked magazine, which dates back to 1958.Show more

The series gained its popularity by standing from the crowd using to the point intellectual humorist observation on modern society dilemmas and phenomena: dissecting pop culture to the detail for comedy. The themes selected, usually analyze profoundly ambiguous standpoints about pop culture and life in general, ranging from which fictional apocalypse is the most fun to what would happen if Facebook introduces a subcutaneous new timeline that can predict your future.

Many people poor their lives out on Facebook. Regular Facebook users would share all the details of their daily activities such as photo tags, check-ins and whereabouts, with or without having adjusted their security settings. They would connect with their families, they would connect with their friends, they would use it to make professional connections or brands as consumers. And everything would be clearly visible on their timelines.

Facebook is a big part of pop culture and, as we know, Cracked.com loves to have a poke at modern phenomena. In this video, for the love of a parody, Cracked.com is announcing an exciting new innovation that will soon be appearing on your Facebook wall, and in your nightmares, just to prove a point and underline the folly of our desire to be seen and known.

We do not want to spoil the fun, so folks, grab a cup of coffee and enjoy the video!
