I searched for the wiki entry of "facebook" and got some interesting results. This page basically states a lot about the history of facebook.com and a good definition.
This page's defintion for facebook was the following:
"Facebook is a free-access social networking website that is operated and privately owned by Facebook, Inc.[1] Users can join networks organized by city, workplace, school, and region to connect and interact with other people. People can also add friends and send them messages, and update their personal profiles to notify friends about themselves. The website's name refers to the paper facebooks depicting members of a campus community that some US colleges and preparatory schools give to incoming students, faculty, and staff as a way to get to know other people on campus."
I would consider this an authoritative source because of its extensive reference list of multiple authors of books, critics, and more. I looked into the discussion and nothing really caught my eye as something to be wary of. Most people did not disagree about much except for small things such as the fact that facebook works in Iran. As a user myself, i would agree with this definition of facebook as well.
