Facebook updates "Page" creation tools.

By Kammie Avant on Feb. 8, 2011

Facebook page creation

There is a new page creation process on Facebook, that even the youngest, newest Facebook user can understand, and it will streamline Facebook searches considerably. They've done away with Community Pages - arguably one of their bigger business mistakes - and have gone back to a single type of "Page," now with elaborate levels of categories.

In an effort to become more professional and brand friendly, Facebook had made it damn near impossible to create a page for fun or social purposes. But Facebook is getting back to their roots and is making everyone happy with this new format. Not to mention, the pictures are fun!

Select what kind of general page it is - brand, person, entertainment, social cause, and so on - and then under each of these select from the very long list of subcategories provided. For instance, once you've decided if you're a brand or a product, you then can label your page as a baby product, a musical instrument, a pet product, a vitamin, etc. Facebook seemingly has the exact peg for every page to fit into. After making your selections, click "get started" and, voila, you've got yourself page.

I'm really only left with one question.... where does one acquire an old-school Game Boy with Facebook access?!
