I just experienced the earthquake in Hollywood. I’m in a brick building on the second story. After I started feeling dizzy I realized the blinds were moving with me and then I looked up at my hanging bike and it was also moving. As I walked across the room I heard the structure start to make noises. I went outside and the couple across the street went out to see what was goin on. They also said the earthquake was like a smooth motion.
Here’s a good map of where it happened: http://quake.usgs.gov/recenteqs/Maps/115-33.html
I like just searching google for “earthquake california” and they will show me all the recent updates: http://www.google.com/search?q=california+earthquake
Surprisingly there was another earthquake in southern California that was over 5.0 magnitude.

I’m in Venice and felt it too, like being on a rocking boat. It lasted for a while, I could see the blinds kept on moving. Felt the same dizzy feeling.
I know – then there was all kinds of aftershocks. I couldn’t feel anything but the main one though. Then twitter blewup and earthquake trended in no time at all.
