Smartphones are now part of the global earthquake detection system. The United States Geological Survey (USGS) and Google developed an early warning system using data from seismometers and smartphones. Most smartphones have accelerometers that measure vibrations, which can help detect earthquakes quickly.

Here in Melbourne, Australia, we are heading into the colder months. 

Daylight Saving has just ended, so we moved our clocks back an hour. On the plus side, we all got an extra hour of sleep over the weekend. But it also means the sun sets an hour earlier. 

If I want to catch the daylight, I have to walk the dog earlier. I also have to put better lights on my bicycle because I'm cycling more often around twilight and dusk.
