How to Add a Countdown Ticker to a Facebook Page

How to Add a Countdown Ticker to a Facebook Page: Countdown counter, just like it is called is a Facebook feature which helps users to countdown to a particular anticipated event, though there are more uses, but this is its primary function on Facebook. Some other function other than counting down to a loved one's birthday, a long-awaited summer vacation or a business that's launching a new product or website on the countdown date may include, acting as a reminder of an event and so on. The Facebook app that offers many countdown features which I could recommend is the TimeAndDate.com Countdown application, this app lets you post to your profile wall, friend's wall, group wall, event page or Facebook page.
