Facebook: Groups vs. Pages

Mashable is a great Social Media guide site.

When I realized I had no idea what the difference between a Facebook Group and Facebook Page was, or which I should have for Moxie, I checked their site and found this article:

It was nice to know I'm not the only one with this confusion!

Pages are more like a corporation - managed by a person, but not necessarily connected to the personal profile. Pages are also indexed by Google.

Groups are more like clubs & offer greater control over membership, but are linked to your personal page (posts show as come from you).

Given how much personal interaction I have on my Facebook, I've decided to go the Page route. Find me and become a fan!
