I built a new feature for events. You can now go to any past event you hosted or attended, and create a repeat event. It’ll copy the details into a new event (which you can preview and edit before posting) and invite your friends from the past event.

As sister blog Inside Facebook pointed out, page administrators who host several similar events can now adjust only the appropriate fields, rather than starting from scratch with each event.
