Notes and news, insights and inspiration from the autonomous collective mind of GS.

If you manage any Facebook fan pages, you may have seen a notification like this one on your iPhone recently:

At long last, Facebook has introduced an easy-to-use tool to help brand page administrators quickly and easily stay on top of activity on their page from any location: the Facebook Pages App for iPhone.

The new app – available to U.S. users in the iTunes Store – has a familiar look and feel, as it’s strongly modeled after the user experience for its ubiquitous Facebook client, but it provides a streamlined experience for admins. Most notably, the app offers push notifications of page activity so you’re made aware when a user posts a comment or otherwise interacts with the page.

Other features:

• Easy updating and interacting on the go
• Access to all managed pages in a single location (or at least up to 50)
• A readily available snapshot of page insights

For iPhone users, this app does represent something of a convenience. Here’s hoping this tool is eventually integrated with the main Facebook client.
