you can only send messages. It's more like an announcement page.

you use the "@" symbol follwed by their name to reply/ talk to them
for example @girlwonder24 I like you background picture
Or if you are friends with someone you and send them a DM or direct message that no one else sees in comparison to the open @ message everyone sees
