June 30th, 2010 marks the first annual Social Media Day, as declared by Mashable., it is a day to celebrate the revolution of media becoming a social dialogue.
I celebrate social media everyday!
I am passionate about connecting people, and I love how technology enables us to do so. Besides making great friends and forming new business relationships, I also met my husband online and have dedicated my career to teaching others about the benefits of social media. Needless to say, I will be celebrating Social Media Day, today and everyday here after!
Would you like to join in the party? There are over 10,000 people attending over 600 Social Media Day Meet-ups around the world, find the one closest to you and start socializing! Chicago will be celebrating Mashable’s Social Media Day at Da Coach’s place, Mike Ditka’s Restaurant tonight from 7-9pm. If you are coming, don’t forget to bring your business cards!
Social media brings people together, if you can’t get out of the office, you can tune into see how 90+ countries around the world are celebrating, festivities are already underway in Tokyo, check it out! Chained to the desk? You can also keep up with the celebration on Twitter by tracking by following @mashSMday or #smday.
