See All Worlds Earthquakes- Real Time!

The recent earthquakes in Haiti and Chile have caused a surge in interest on the Internet. Earthquakes are actually much more common than many people realize. In fact, it is estimated that several million earthuakes occur in the world every year. Thankfully, most of them are very mild and only a few come any where near those that make the evening news.

One of the more interesting sites is the one for the U.S. Geological Survey. You can find a lot of interesting information here including:

• Latest earthquakes in the world over the last seven days
• Latest earthquakes in the United States over the last seven days
• The last earthquake in Ohio, Pennsylvania, or West Virginia
• In fact, you can go to the Information by State page and find out all kinds of earthquake information for any state.

So if you think this kind of information is interesting, you will likely find yourself spending a few hours browsing the USGS website.
