Every Christmas Eve kids from around the world will visit the Norad Santa Tracker to see where Father Christmas is. There is something new for 2008, as you will now be able to track Santa in flight by using Google Earth.
You will need to do two things, if you do not have Google Earth installed on your computer, then you should download it now. Then you will have to download and install NORAD Tracks Santa file for Google Earth, which will be available on Christmas Eve.
To make sure that you are ready, download and install Google Earth now, then visit the Norad website on December 24, 2008 and click on the red button which will appear on the middle of the page.

Aw, that’s really quite a sweet use of the technology. Even if Norad can’t always keep up with Santa’s magic
lol im just wondering why on christmas eve i want to see him nooooow (im 13 and i still believe in satan) oops i ment santa
Santa is real its just he has magic powers and if someone wakes up he turns invisible so he wont be seen! Im being serious! When the reindeers eat a carrot it makes them fly and thats why we sometimes leave food for reindeers.(carrots would be more helpfu!)
I’m 12 years old and i believe in santa. Don’t know how they track him though.
Merry Christmas. :O
I BELIEVE!!! (in santa)
i cant belive a 13 year old belives in santa
still a guud way for kids
