A) Stay on top of tech news

Keeping up with the news can be extremely time-consuming nowadays, especially in tech – there are just so many exciting things happening at once. Thankfully, bite-sized Facebook posts can help you shift through them and find those that interest you the most.

If you haven’t heard about TechCrunch you’re missing out. It’s one of the most consistent media outlets out there and it is focused solely on tech. The Facebook page of Mashable is another extremely useful and extensive source of information. PCWorld has a lot of tech news as well, with an accent on gaming and PCs. With these three combined, you are guaranteed to never miss a single thing happening in tech and gain an in-depth understanding of all the topics you care about!

B) Security

Security has been one of the hottest topics ever since the NSA reveals and rightfully so. In the digital age, keeping our online identity safe is becoming gradually more important. Naked Security by Sophos is a page that pulls no punches. Find out about every major security breach, how it might affect you, and learn about how to protect yourself. Facecrooks is a Facebook page that revolves around making your account on the social network as secure as possible. If you want to know everything about the latest scams, attacks and general dangers of Facebook, Facecrooks is a page you should definitely follow.

C) Business, life and everything else

On to the sites that are so awesome that they could all be in a category of their own. First, Lifehacker. A quick glance at that page right now will give anyone a pretty good idea how crazy but funnily useful it can be. From picking out the best eggs by looking at the carton, managing your finances, programing on iOS or creating 3D models, Lifehacker has all the things you didn’t know you needed, but can’t imagine not having known afterwards.

Enterpreneur

Entrepreneur is a page that is especially useful for freelancers. They have all sorts of articles on writing pitches, writing better emails, increasing your productivity and other relevant topics. Every freelancer can benefit from reading their content and reflecting upon it, no matter how experienced they are.

TED Talk

As you probably know, this is mainly a site rather than a Facebook page, but we thought it deserved an honorable mention. It is all about great speakers who deliver the most thought-provoking, inspiring and amazing content. TED is among the most interesting sites on the Internet, so you should check it out if you don’t know it yet. And with their Facebook page, knowing when a new video pops out or discussing it with fellow fans couldn’t be easier.
