As the News spread about the Virginia Tech University massacre, the reports shown on television also have revealed how the Virginia Tech students were blogging and even using Facebook.com to spread the new, give their condolences, or simply share how they felt about the whole situation. One student who works for AOL even posted something on their website about the shooter.
To me this word of mouth type of communication is great. It gives people a chance to express themselves and also receive feedback on their thoughts. In a situation like this mutual support from each other can help to cope with this type of awful tragedy.
I copied some of the comments from other people on Facebook that are not Virginia Tech students, courtesy of Facebook. It is not how the lay out of a Facebook page really is but it just shows an example of how one thing can connect different people everywhere together.
I did have some Facebook responses to the tragedy posted, but blogger would not let me link to Facebook group page directly so I apologize. The responses were of concern for the families of the students and not at all vulgar in any way so if you have a Facebook page log on and view some of the groups that have dedicated pages to the V tech students and faculty.
