Social Media Day: Why Not Celebrate?

Start the countdown to June 30: Mashable has decided to celebrate the revolution of social media by organizing Social Media Day.

In cities all over the U.S., Mashable staff will be organizing meetups to celebrate the day. For more information, visit the Meetup Everywhere site. If there is not a scheduled meetup in your area, organize one through Meetup Everywhere. These meetups connect social media enthusiasts in the area and encourage people to get together and talk about their love of and experience with social media. Since social media has had such an impact on our lives and the ways we communicate, share news and conduct work, Mashable asks: why not celebrate?

I will be celebrating by getting more familiar with some new (to me!) social media sites including Digg.com and SharetheMusic.com. I also encourage you to try some new social media applications or attend a Mashable meetup.

Here are some social media sites I recommend for delving into social media, both personally and professionally:

• Facebook
• Twitter
• LinkedIn
• Delicious
• Flickr
• WordPress
• Blogspot
• Hootsuite
• TweetDeck
• FourSquare
