If you create an event under your own personal profile then you are able to message attendees etc... however if you create the event under a fanpage then you are simply limited to "Updating" fans of that page.

There is much to be gained from twitter and facebook to those who have websites. I have joined groups that are of my niche market. With twitter, one should think of having a contest on his/her website then announcing it on twitter.

At least with the Fan Page your updates show up in the newsfeed. Groups, your message gets lost. I too was not happy with non-ability to message Fans who have registered for an event - this seems to be a fatal flaw! Why groups vs fan pages?

I was not aware that an event did not have a messaging feature. I had assumed that as the event co-ordinator I would have that ability in case there was a last minute time or venue change that needed to be announced. Definitely going to have to rethink some strategies! Thank you for the heads up. I was not aware that an event did not have a messaging feature.
