Prayers, tributes pour in for tech victims

PHOTOS, videos, prayers and rumours spread across the internet within minutes of the Virginia Tech massacre as people from around the world used websites to mourn the victims and get the latest information about the shootings.

On Monday, however, the name of another Virginia Tech student spread across blogs and message boards after his personal blog showed photos posing with weapons and postings about his ex-girlfriend.

More than 80,000 people visited Wayne Chiang’s site until he posted a message declaring he was not the shooter and had to call police after receiving death threats.
