Good luck to everyone over there.
There will be different epicenters for the after shocks and due to the new stress/strains caused by this earth motion there will be adjustments to other pieces of crust, nearby and not-so-nearby.

Some good links here and here .

If you go back in time on the first link you'll see fore shock info. Precursors for the larger quake.
