As Facebook become more popular beyond its original core audience (college kids) it became apparent that there needed to be other ways to allow people to connect. The creation of the Facebook Page has enabled folks to share information without necessarily being "Friends" on Facebook.
Do I have to have a Facebook Timeline Page?
Yes, however, you do not need to friend your Facebook fans. Which means that you can post as your page, without worrying that your Page's Fans will also see your posts on your own timeline. Thus that silly joke between you and your neighbor about whose team will make it into the Final Four won't appear on your Page. As of this writing, Page Administrators have a choice about letting followers know who is administrating the page. There are of course, pros and cons to this practice. On the pro side, followers won't worry about individual administrators, trusting that the posts on the page represent the viewpoints of the page as a whole. On the con side, we've seen teens set up pages and use the ability to be anonymous to bully. With concerted effort those types of pages can be removed.
