This Dynamic Earth--Contents [USGS]
The premier site on plate tectonics. Nice layout, detailed information, many photos and illustrations, broad range of topics, and interesting. Also a section on earthquakes, tsunamis and volcanoes.
Continental Drift and Plate Tectonics
A small site with a very good overview of Continental Drift theory and Wegener, the theory's orignator.
Plate Tectonics
A perfect combination of education and entertainment. Interesting overviews of plate tectonics/faults and folds with very nice animated illustrations, a great interactive exhibit, biographies and historical events.
Earth's Interior & Plate Tectonics
Earth's Interior & Plate Tectonics
Paleomap Project
A sizeable collection of very good continental drift animations, including one of the Earth at 250 million years in the future. More supporting information would be a nice addition.
Plate Tectonics, the Cause of Earthquakes
Part of a larger site on earthquakes.
Earth's Magnetosphere
Good material on Earth's magnetic field.
Geology Wing
Another excellent subsite from UCMP Berkeley. Features photos and illustrations, and information on geological eras, stratigraphy and fossils. Deals more with paleontology than geology per se.
Interactive Time Line

Earth - All Stressed Out
Features superb Flash animated sections on plate tectonics, earthquakes, faults, volcanic eruptions and tsunamis - the best of its kind on the web! Also excellent supporting information, videos and photos.
Plate Tectonics
Excellent continental drift animations, the development of the theory and good general information on plate tectonics.
Savage Earth Online
Excellent effort. Great design and enteratining content with lots of photos, diagrams, java animations and videos. Topics include Earth's crust, smokers, volcanoes, tsunamis and earthquakes.
In-Depth
Digital Tectonic Activity Map (DTAM)
Excellent fault line and seismic activity maps.
