I'm in Clifton hill, but a friend in Ormond felt it as well, other side of town.
Thanks for the link goldfish!

I rang my DD & SIL in South Yarra and asked if they had just had an earthquake (as soon as I read deedub's posting).  SIL answered the phone and had felt it, thought a truck rolled past in front of their house until the bed shook.  He was very surprised I knew about it when he hadn't been able to find out anything over there at that time.
