50 Tech Facebook Pages You Should be Liking

The following is a list of Facebook Pages of prominent groups, companies, and people in the tech industry that have an active presence on Facebook.  As far as I can tell, these pages are owned by their respective namesake and they are updated regularly.  The descriptions I’ve provided for each entry are from the most relevant section of the Info area of the page listed and in cases where no information was relevant, I provided my own summary.

This list is by no means comprehensive, it’s simply a smattering of pages I find interesting and valuable.  “Like” away!

First off, I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention our own newly created Facebook page for computer business tips and tricks: YFNCG on Facebook.  Now onto the rest of the list…
