The crater floor of Pu'u'O'o collapsed yesterday as lava withdrew from that area. I just missed this event as I had looked at the webcam less than an hour before!
Hopefully this will shift the eruption away from threatening more Kalapana homes... A great write-up here...

Also, just found a video of the Pu'u'O'o collapse on Youtube...check it out!
UPDATE 3-21 Eruption is now paused. Long pauses are often followed by major changes in the eruption.
