Ive asked informally about this on IRC.
Things should be properly vetted before they are posted on behalf of the
organization.
In addition, these pages are not updated very well.
Theyd be a great way to get feedback from users in a less hostile
environment (compared to IRC).
Also, many things can be put up there such as tutorials, faqs, and guides.
Also recent major bugfixes can be announced and people can post questions
and be answered by other users on the page.
I think Facebook and Twitter would be the 2 most important networks to have
an official Fedora page.
Thanks,
Dan

I know there are a couple of G+ pages (not sure if they are 'official'):
https://plus.google.com/112917221531140868607/posts
https://plus.google.com/u/0/110514354576121733241/posts
(The first one only seems to have activity on it).
There is also a twitter feed here:
https://twitter.com/fedora/
I do not know who is responsible for updating to these.
I also just learned of two Facebook groups via Christoph Wickert this
morning.
I'm happy to help with these any way I can, if help is needed.
