Roanoke.com on Virginia Tech shootings anniversary

Today marks the one-year anniversary of the shootings at Virginia Tech and the Roanoke Times/Roanoke.com staff will be covering the day on a special Web site, One Year Later.


John Jackson of The Roanoke Times tells CyberJournalist.net:

The site will feature a Google map to pinpoint moments captured by reporters, photographers, videographers and producers throughout the Roanoke and New River Valleys. These moments will be chronicled in audio vignettes, video, photo galleries and stories. Contributors can submit stories, photos or comments to share their experience. Whether it’s a cookout with friends, a game of chess or a quiet moment of reflection, the One Year Later site is intended to provide a true-to-life glimpse into how people everywhere choose to remember a solemn day.

People can also become a of the site on Facebook here.
