It looks like Facebook is working with Eventbrite to let members sell tickets to the 3.5 million odd events added to the top social network every month. "Eventbrite is partnering with Facebook to
enable you to collect money for your event," read a Web page, since vanished, at facebook.eventbrite.com. "Your attendees pay with credit card and Eventbrite collects the money on your behalf and
sends you a check when your event is over. We charge a small service fee for every ticket sold. 5.5% + $.99c, which attendees pay, costing you nothing."
Earlier this month, TechCrunch
confirmed that Facebook plans to sell tickets to its upcoming F8 developer conference through Eventbrite. Call this latest development "fascinating," TechCrunch says, "it seems likely that Facebook
will send users (to Eventbrite) that want to monetize events, have them log in via Facebook Connect, and finish the process.
