(Note - I don't know enough about this to judge what is a really good source and what might be less reliable, so I'm reading from as many sources as I can to put together clear information. Use your best judgment when reading these.)
Update from the "International Disaster Response Network"
Explanation of what has happened in Japan and what it means, from NewScientist
Slightly more clear and slightly older explanation at The Register
Compilation of resources, charts, advice, out of Tokyo at Mutantfrog Travelogue
What is a nuclear reactor meltdown? Answered at Christian Science Monitor
Concept of a Banana Equivalent Dose (who knew?) - Wikipedia.
This graphic was posted here - again, I don't have any good way of evaluating if it's accurate at all (for one thing, I don't speak Japanese so I can't evaluate the translations), but I double-checked some of the numbers and examples and it seems to be fairly correct. A good ballpark, at least.
UPDATE:
NYT has an article on the fire.
Reason, as usual, has a calm, pro-market take.
