It has come up with the idea of celebration as a way to show social media’s impact on global communication. Mashable is been using social media to connect with cultures, movements, and super-fandom as it has been the heart of global communication since its dawn. Social media culture began with the introduction of Friendster and MySpace in 2002 and 2003, respectively. Soon in 2004, Facebook was launched, which connected millions of people from around the world. Twitter, Whatsapp, Instagram, and so many social media sites have been introduced.
