Saint Louis to celebrate Social Media Day 2011

What is “Social Media Day” you ask?

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 celebrate by socializing with your online community offline!

 

The Saint Louis Social Media Club is having a meet-up in honor of Social Media Day on Thursday, June 30th at 6:00 p.m. downtown at Gio’s. Register here.

The event is free to attend, and there will be drinks and appetizer specials throughout the evening.

When you get to Gio’s don’t forget to check-in on FourSquare or GoWalla. Take an Instagram. Send out some Twitter love with a couple shout-outs about who you run into and what you’re enjoying chatting about, but be sure to use the hash tags #smcstl and #smday so everyone who’s there can see your tweets. There’s already a pretty healthy stream of awesome social media folks in Saint Louis tweeting with #smcstl. Most are about how giddy everyone is to get to the meet-up and see some of their favorite Tweeps in person like we all do at least once a month in this thriving online community. Others are just plain ridiculous.

If you haven’t been to an SMCSTL Meet-Up before, make sure you check out our Facebook page to see photos and details from past events. It’s a guaranteed good time! And in the spirit of the national Social Media Day project, SMCSTL continues to work to facilitate frequent gatherings of truly well-connected, technologically savvy, interactive professionals from across the Saint Louis area.
