This page contains links to "Santa Trackers"— sites that track the progress of Santa Claus on Christmas Eve as he makes his way around the world. This year, Christmas Eve is on Thursday, December 24, 2009. Santa is tracked by using global positioning systems and Google Earth. Last year, Santa tracking took on a new dimension, as NORAD began using Google Earth and Twitter to help spread the word of Santa's location on Christmas Eve.
