Happy Social Media Day from all of us at Mashable.

This year marks the fifth-annual global celebration, and it's gearing up to be one of the largest yet, with hundreds of events around the world, many of which are bringing hundreds and sometimes thousands of people together.

While many can (and do) argue that every day is essentially Social Media Day, this holiday welcomes the world to sit back for a moment and reflect on the widespread changes social media and the digital revolution have provided us.

So how can you celebrate? You can take part in the global conversation online today through the hashtag #SMDay or seek out an in-person event at a Meetup near you.

And if you joined Mashable's #1Connection movement, get prepared to meet your new digital pen pal!

Happy fifth Social Media Day from Mashable. We can't wait to see what the next five years have in store.
