But I think the remarks in the beginning have the biggest weight: FB attracted folks with the promise to be among themselves, still in a group, but a group excluded from the greater world. And that’s now gone . I still picture every social network, FB included as a middle ages market place, a square where people flock to chat, do some deals, update on the latest gossip, show their newest clothes. it will be interesting to see how/when it all comes together!.

I crrently have a useless 'fake' profile created just to be an admin of our Fanpage using a company email address so admin can be passed on if necessary.... it's making life harder for me. For example, automatic Twitter updates go to the profile and not to the Fanpage. Do you know whether a Fan Page created via your method above could be automatically updated from Twitter?

You will see the regular page setup, but when you confirm the creation of your page, you get a screen <a href="http://www.techipedia.com/images/no-fb-account.png" rel="nofollow">like this</a>. That's how you do it. Tia, just go to this URL when you’re not logged into Facebook. You will see the regular page setup, but when you confirm the creation of your page, you get a screen like this.
