eQuakeAlert!

About this Add-on

eQuakeAlert! is a handy add-on, which alerts you with the basic information (date, location, and magnitude) of each earthquake. By default, your browser will shake proportional to the earthquake magnitude. You can configure the alert methods and even you can limit the alerts by the earthquake magnitude. The recent quakes menu provides a link to the detailed information of the earthquake event at the USGS (US Geological Survey) website.

Please give us your feedback! If it's broken, we can fix it. If it's missing, we can add it. If you want to help, we can include your contributions. Translations welcome! We can only improve if you let us know how we're doing. Please visit the eQuakeAlert! Facebook Page.

This add-on will install and work in the background fine by itself, but to view the popup menu interface requires either The Addon Bar (Restored) or the Classic Theme Restorer (which also restores the addon bar, in addition to many other changes). Some people may already have one and not want the other, but the AMO "Required Add-ons" feature only allows one, or both to be required, not either, so I don't list them as required below.

This requirement will be removed in the future as we migrate to the newer Addons-SDK or the upcoming WebExtensions. However, it will remain as an option and highly recommended for those who don't want add-on icons cluttering up their navigation bar.

* Fix some problems with links not working.
* Improved shaking in various states to properly restore the browser position if it was previously minimized or maximized, etc.

* Increased font functionality to include several fonts (highly compressed WOFF files), change font family, size, and toggle boldness and apply the resultant font to the menu items as well as status bar.
* Use only SVG for all logos and icons, resulting in more powerful image use (i.e. change colors and resolution programmatically, much smaller size, reusable, scalable crisp and clear).
