The B5Media network:

Was that an earthquake?

This is too cool. I found on Download Squad a Yahoo Widget called Wiglet that is a little Jell-O mold that wiggles whenever the USGS records an earthquake anywhere in the world.  I have a nice red Jell-O right now and have been watching some seismic activity in Mexico.

What does this show?  Well that there are earthquakes going on pretty much all the time.  Didn’t know that, huh?  I think this is a cool way to show, maybe even during a classroom presentation, about how active the earth really is.  Imagine it projected behind you as you talk and it periodically wiggles away and flashes the magnitude and location.

Give it a shot.
