A Facebook page is a modern approach for maintaining a personalized webpage for something. You can create a Facebook page for anything such as your hobby, company, club, society, project etc. Unlike the Facebook groups who have members, Facebook Pages have fans. Although many Facebook features are restricted to the visitors who haven’t logged-in to Facebook, Facebook Pages are visible to the outer public. If you have a Facebook page for some purpose, you can send updates to your fans. These updates usually appear at the right side of the home page, so it gets less attention. Once the fans get the updates, they can go through the link and see the full message or the update made by the Page owners.
There are many Facebook applications that can be added to the Facebook page. As an example, you can simply add a RSS feed to your page, so the Page will display the latest updates from your blog. When it comes to advantages, being accessible by non-Facebook members is the biggest advantage as it allows the Page to reach a wide range of people on the Internet. If you are really interested in the statistics of the users visiting your Facebook Page, Facebook gives you an attractive statistics page for you to understand the user behaviors. As a matter of fact, Facebook Pages have a limited popularity so far, making the Facebook users less familiar with Pages than Facebook Groups. Although the non-Facebook visitors can view the page, they need to login to Facebook to make comments.

Have you ever heard of the concept of micro-blogging? Of course this sounds smaller than blogging and mini-blogging. Facebook introduced micro-blogging with the introduction of the feature called ‘Status Updates’.
Status Updates have become one of the most popular features in Facebook, and used by almost all the users. Status Updates enables the Facebook users to inform their friends about their thoughts, actions, and whereabouts. Speaking with personal experience, I usually read through almost all the status updates of friends whenever I login to Facebook.
Status Updates fall in to a few categories. First of all, it is an update about something you are engaged with currently. As an example, ‘Jen is listing to Akon’ is an update about what Jen is engaged with. Frequently, Status Updates are used to express thoughts such as ‘Billy is a total idiot’.In addition to that, many users use Status Updates for being funny and ironic such as ‘Sam thinks Obama should swear a few more times jut to be safe’.
When Status Update was originally implemented, Facebook prompted it with ‘<User’s Name> is…’ and the users filled the rest. These Status Updates appeared as ‘Tom is listing to silence’. By December 2007, Facebook removed the need of ‘is’ in the Facebook Status Updates. Although ‘is’ still appears by default, users can use the backspace key to delete it if they wish.
With the latest updates of Facebook (March 2009), the question for Status Updates, ‘What are you doing?’ was changed to ‘What’s on your mind?’.
