What does colour coded mean?
It means that earthquakes of different magnitudes will be shown via different colour pins on the map and different background colours in the list.

4.5 <= M -- Red
3.5 <= M -- Yellow
2.5 <= M -- Purple
1.5 <= M -- Blue
1.5 > M -- Green


Note: Some quakes takes longer than usual to show up. I can't do anything about it as I don't own the database servers.
