Happy Social Media Day!
Technology and social networking site Mashable launched the Social Media Day event in 2010 as a way to recognize the digital revolution happening around us. On this day, independent meetups are organized around the world to learn and chat about social media.

There was even a cool tour of the newsroom and presses. Talk about two worlds colliding..old school media meets new media and technology, something the OC Register has taken positive steps towards achieving.
