Facebook allows its users to do much more than chat with friends or post links, pictures and videos. Using the powerful Event application in Facebook, users can create notices for online or real-life events and send invitations to friends and extended network members. Another valuable feature of the Event application in Facebook is the ability to send follow-up messages to those who register for your Facebook event. Using the Event Messenger application, you can send important information or event updates to all Facebook members registered for the event in a matter of minutes.
