Earthquake OneBox in Google Search
Posted on 15:21
by Unknown
If you're in the US and you
search for "earthquake"
using Google, you'll notice an
OneBox
that shows a list of recent earthquakes. The data is provided by the US Geological Survey.
Ask.com has
a similar direct answer
that links to
a very nice mashup
. There's also
a Google Maps mashup
that highlights the most recent earthquakes.
{ Thanks, Adam. }
