Citing “executives briefed on Facebook’s plans,” Ad Age is reporting that Facebook will use its Feb. 29 conference for marketers in New York to announce the initiative. Facebook will start in beta with a “handful of brands,” says Ad Age.

Back in September, we asked some top digital firms to imagine how branded Timeline Pages would look. Their designs are below:
