For the first time in my many trips to the valley, I felt the earth move this evening as the San Francisco Bay area experienced a moderate earthquake.
Of course as soon as I could I looked online at the USGS site, and within minutes the KML of the epicentre was there to view – a system that just works !

Um.. yes.. it works, has been working for years.. well before Google Earth. It is an automatically generated file that you can see on the website, rss feed, WorldWind, yahoo maps, VE Maps, email.. all at the very same time..
It would be quite nice if Brazilian Gov jumped the Geo bandwagon too.
I think USGS is aeons ahead of our NMA.
The world before our eyes. Great stuff.
