Innovation in College Media

Arvinder Kang from the University of Mississippi did some interesting analysis of today's news coverage of the tragic story at Virginia Tech.

Facebook was one of the fastest and most intertwined networks that people turned on to share their heartfelt feelings about the victims of Virginia Tech shooting. At 6.10 pm, facebook already had 302 groups and 3 events tagged “Virginia tech Shooting” - one of the groups with about 28000 members and more than 4000 responses.
