Turn your Mac into a seismograph for science

Your MacBook or MacBook Pro, with this software, can be a real time seismograph.

Living in an earthquake-prone part of the word, I’m going to try it.

And guess what it’s called? It’s iSeismograph, duh.

The software was produced to work something like the SETI@home project, using the built-in accelerometers in lots of laptops to collect seismic data in real time. Very cool, very nerdy, very us.
