Really like this widget.

Helps me to keep track of world events and the increase of seimic activity both on my work G5 and at home iMac.

Appreciate the work that went into this. No complaints.

Neat. However, I'm much more interested in regional data, e.g. http://quake.wr.usgs.gov/ (see http://earthquake.usgs.gov/regional/ for more)

Any chance of such configurability? How do I go about finding out if the regional site has the data feed I need?

You'll note that if you turn text scrolling off also the cpu usage will drop dramatically. If you want the bling-bling you have to pay the performance hit man. And that's just konfabulators inbuilt functions.

There is a 1.1 in the works though that should fix a few issues that people have pointed out.

This is a really nice widget, graphically and the idea. The only complaint I have at all is the fact that it seems to use a bit more resources than it probably should. With the map up and animation on it uses around 50% of my cpu, with the animation off and the map minimized it bounces around 7-14%. Still a little much of you ask me. But overall a very nice job. Maybe the code can be reworked to allow for less cpu usage?
