With yesterday's news of an earthquake in Chile I found myself browsing blogs for information and found an excellent tool. Hungary's Association of Radio Distress Signalling and Infocommunications' Emergency and Disaster Information Service is an interactive online map tracking all manner of emergency's and disasters around the globe.

This is an amazing webpage since it provides massive amounts of information in an easy to use format. It also shows many disasters that you are unlikely to see on the evening news. Earthquakes, mosques collapsing, norovirus outbreaks, power outages, you name it - it's here. This is a great website to spend an afternoon at just to learn more about what's happening in the world.
