Google+ pages cannot follow other people unless they have been added first.
Google+ pages also cannot +mention people unless those people are
already following the pages. Google+ pages can add other pages to their
circles. If an individual decides to unfollow your page, then the page
will also automatically unfollow that individual.
Google+ pages are not private.
Once created, they can be found via the Google+ search, and regular
Google search. Google+ pages can use circles to share content between
certain audiences. The Google+ page circles include Team Members (for
members of your organizations), VIPs (for people important to your
organization), Customers (for people who use your business or brand),
and Following (for people you don't know personally but are interested
in following).
Google+ pages cannot play games.
(Not sure why they're listed on the side of a page's stream; hopefully
Google+ will get rid of this eventually.) Google+ pages cannot +1 other
pages or other websites. Google+ pages have a +1 button underneath their
profile picture.
Local Google+ pages can provide physical information, such as phone number and address.
Google+ pages do not receive notifications
via email, text, or the black navigation bar. To check to see who's
added you or commented on your posts, click on the Notifications link on
the left-hand side for the stream.
Google+ pages are not restricted to brands or businesses. You can make a page about anything, such as the one I made about +books. If you decide to make a parody page, you may find it suspended. In the first week, someone made a parody page for +Bank of America. It's since been removed.
You will be encouraged to "Share your page" to your own circles and followers
on several steps of your page creation. Doing so will enable your page
to be seen by other people, since pages cannot follow people first.
You cannot share items from Google Reader as your page.
You can create as many Google+ pages as you want. To manage them individually, just click underneath your name, and select the page you want to deal with.
