Probably the best web coverage is going to be the Roanoke Times:

I initially heard about the shootings before 10AM here.  I figured my 
mom was in no danger.

After 11, there was a map available at Yahoo, informing me just what 
parts of the VT campus had had shooting incidents.  One of those is 
about half a mile from my mom's house.

We tried to get in touch with her; phoning in to Blacksburg didn't get 
us anywhere.  Dan IM'ed a co-worker who lives there, and I e-mailed her. 
  She was able to call us around 1:15.

She's fine, physically.  She's badly shaken.  When she e-mailed me, she 
told me she didn't know if any of the 20 students or 20-30 faculty she 
knew were among the casualties.  She's going to take it very hard if 
she's lost anyone.
