Glad I'm not the only one that finds Facebook confusing! Never know whether to post on my Wall, Status, profile or what have you. Anyone know where there is a simple explanation for a simple silver surfer to follow? Very grateful if there is!
__________
You're wall, status, and profile are all basically the same thing. Your status is the sentence you post "I just made this really cool thing!" Your wall is where that sentence shows up (as opposed to the "info" section of your profile which has your name and interests or whatever you put there.) Your status also shows up in your friends' newsfeeds (which is what you see when you click on "home" when logged into facebook.
Pages act just like profiles, except that they don't interface with "like" buttons on sites other than facebook. So if you are logged in as your page, you can go to another facebook page and "like" it, but if you are reading an article on a blog, or the New York Times, or looking at an item on etsy and try to "like" it, you will be asked to switch to your personal profile.
Does that make any sense?
