While Facebook Fan Pages give you more options such as:

- you can subscribe via SMS

- embed into a web page

- update via Twitter (Facebook Update -> Twitter… not the other way around)

- they are publicly available (open to the public)

- and some other things…

Facebook Groups serve a different purpose from that of Facebook Fan Pages.

- they are closed to the public (only Facebook members can join and view the Group)

- great way to bring together a small group/community of people, fast

- and many other benefits…

but post is not about the benefits of Facebook Pages and Facebook Groups, rather about how to manage a facebook group.
