According to Todd J. Olmstead, Mashable

“Social Media Day is a day to celebrate the ways in which social media has changed our lives for the better. It’s also a

celebration of people — you, the people who make social media so fun, useful, informative, and enlightening.

Last year, hundreds of meetups involving thousands of people took place across the globe. Diverse locations such as Morocco, the Philippines and Sri Lanka hosted some of the most well-attended events, while eight cities and two states here in the U.S. officially declared June 30 as Social Media Day.”
