Facebook simplifies event creation, makes event pages more like groups

Facebook updated its event creation flow so that fewer fields are required to make a new event. Posts on an event page Wall are now sorted by activity, as they are in groups, so posts get pushed to the top of the page when they receive comments.

These changes and others introduced today are meant to make Facebook’s event product more useful for planning casual get-togethers in addition to more formal events. For example, users no longer have to indicate a time and location for an event, allowing plans to be more fluid.
