If you do a search for "earthquakes" on Google, now you'll get info on the most recent earthquake activity. This information is listed at the top of the results. Here's an example of a search for just "earthquakes" -

Interestingly enough, this info was not included on a search for "earthquake New Jersey," despite the incidence of earthquakes in the Garden State in recent weeks.
