We're thrilled to announce our second annual Social Media Day will be held Thursday, June 30, 2011. The global event is a celebration of the technological advancements that enable everyone to connect with real-time information, communicate from miles apart and have their voices be heard.
We invite you to connect with fellow web enthusiasts by hosting a Social Media Day Meetup in your area. There's no better way to celebrate the revolution of media becoming a social dialogue than by socializing with your online community offline.
A Mashable Meetup can take just about any shape you’d like depending on what best suits your social community. For planning tips, check out our how-to guide.
