8.8 Holy shit. That's massive. The earthquake in Haiti was a 7.0 and this one was a THOUSAND times more powerful than that one. Apparently 78 reported dead but I'm sure that will go up. Also there are tsunami warnings cause hit near the coast

It doesn't seem like there are a lot of reports coming out but cnn's got an article

Pacific under tsunami threat after massive 8.8 quake strikes Chile - CNN.com

For some reason Chile's always been high on my list of places I wanted to go. That is a giant earthquake though.
