Facebook Updates Platform APIs to Encourage More Event Management Apps

Last fall, Facebook created a basic Events API that allowed users to create and manage events from within the application, as well as to RSVP to any events created within that app. However, the API didn’t include some important functionality needed for full event management: namely, being able to send invitations from the app. Today, however, Facebook released a few updates to the API that should make events more usable by developers.
