KEEP REFRESHING FOR NEW LINKS BEING ADDED TO THIS POST.

The big day is here – Vampire Diaries at Comic Con. Rather than spamming you all to death, we’ll be updating this post throughout the day with anything we can find about today’s goings-on in San Diego. The TVD WB booth signing is at 2:30pm with the panel following at 4:15. Keep refreshing this post for new stuff and we’ll try our best to keep up! You can follow along live on @tvdnews – the lovely Jen is at the Con. (If you see her, wish her a happy birthday!)

For those of us who weren’t lucky enough to be at the channel, we were treated to a live stream via uStream. Many thanks to Dread Central for setting that up. Please note that this footage does not contain the season 2 premiere footage.

 
If you have links you think we should add, leave ‘em in the comments! Every little bit helps.

Thanks to Ian Somerhalder tweeting the promotional code, U.S. fans can get a sneak peek at the Vampire Diaries DVD gag reel. Find out how.
