Facebook hackathon results in a new Events View

Mark Zuckerberg has always tried to maintain the hacker ethos in the daily workings of Facebook, where engineers compete all night long and hack ideas together to build a prototype. About a year ago Facebook engineer, Bob Baldwin also indulged in one of these hackathons and the end result is the new Events View that Facebook is launching today.
The new events view incorporates posts, photos and videos and the events icon dynamically updates today’s date. Apart from this, Facebook is also incorporating a new listing view for its calendar that makes scanning upcoming birthdays and events easier. One can actually scroll through all the events without leaving the page.
Facebook has also added suggested events based on page likes, check-in places and friends, which makes finding new events much easier.
