Google Adds Earthquake Search

Google announced today that it has partnered with the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) to add real-time earthquake search results.  Simply type in “earthquake” and results will yield the most recent tremors around the world.

Type in “earthquake California” and you’ll get a listing of activity in the area.  Here’s a snapshot (which also includes my Twitter add-on results):

Here are some other cool Google search functions, while I’m at it.

• Time: “time Japan” will show you the time in Japan.
• Conversion: “50km in miles” will convert kilometers to miles.
