Tracking Santa the Geek Way

December 24, 2009 · 1 comment

Even at 42, I love to track Santa on Christ­mas Eve. I remem­ber as a kid lis­ten­ing to the radio and get­ting so excited as Santa went from coun­try to coun­try. We used to get out maps and the ency­clo­pe­dia to see where all the dif­fer­ent coun­tries were. My kids have it a lit­tle eas­ier, but no less fun. I’m not even sure if you can hear his where­abouts on the radio any­more. I’m sure some sta­tions are updat­ing us, but I think it’s a lot more fun to track him the GEEK way!

  • @noradsanta - Norad will be tweet­ing Santa’s location
  • NORAD Santa Tracker –The offi­cial NORAD Santa Tracker web­site. NORAD has been track­ing Santa for over 50 years (yes, same ones who were on the radion back when I was a kid).
  • Face­book Page - NORADs Face­book fan page
  • Google Earth 3D Santa Tracker — Track Santa in 3D.  They have video for some loca­tions too. Here is a direct link to the page to down­load Google Earth.

iPhone Apps

All 3 are 99 cents. I have not down­loaded any of these because we set up one of our com­put­ers in our home as the offi­cial Santa Tracker com­puter and it dis­plays Google Earth all day. It keeps my kids busy while we wait for Christ­mas Eve to be over and they know they need to go to bed as he gets closer to the United States. I included these in case you are trav­el­ing today and can’t be near your com­puter. I wouldn’t want any geeks out there to miss out on track­ing Santa. :D

How will you be track­ing Santa this year?

I didn’t have time to track Santa this year hubby and I were up on Christmas Eve till 4am playing Wii! We had to get to it before the kids saw it because once they got ahold of it, we’d never get it back.
