The crowd caught #smdayoc in pictures

If you bring people together to celebrate social media, you can expect a stream of event-related tweets, videos and images. That’s exactly what came out of #smdayoc. It was a meetup organized and hosted last week by my employer, The Orange County Register, as part of Mashable’s global Social Media Day event. Disclosures: I helped to pull this event together and the Register is not affiliated with this blog. With that, I present my own tweeted photo of Register Publisher Terry Horne. Please excuse him for blocking the view of the food trucks.

The guy blocking food trucks is Register publisher Terry Horne
