I love Facebook pages: they are an excellent, cheap way to connect with your supporters. More importantly, they make it extremely easy for them to take your message and share it with their own network of friends so that you are not only preaching to the converted. However, apparently Facebook is planning a major overhaul of how Facebook pages work and many of these changes might impact non-profits. The “Nonprofit Tech 2.0″-blog has written an excellent overview of what these changes are and how they might affect you.

Any more recent updates? I noticed when trying to create a new page I could no longer add boxes to the sidebar but only in tabs. Who actually flips through tabs!?
And with updates going to fans friend feeds the page is as good as a group. So what is going to be different between pages and groups?
I suppose we'll see soon enough
I just really hope that they will not limit the reach of pages as described in Nethope's blog post. We currently have 16,000 fans on our Facebook page which means that for us it'd make a big difference if we wouldn't be able to post to their feed any longer.
