New for 2007, I've added an interactive gadget illustrating the
"Naughty and Nice" list on familiar Google maps.
http://www.travelbygps.com/special/santa/tracker.php
The final version of the list for 2007 will be available in KMZ format
on December 23rd, in time for Google Earth users to play along with
content from NORAD (noradsanta.org). As usual, the data will also be
provided in GPs eXchange (.gpx) format for use with other moving map
programs, such as Fugawi and OziExplorer.

Enjoy!

A little late, the 23rd;
as Santa Claus is no other than Saint Nicholas, former bishop of Myra
in Asia Minor (just around 300 AD), and who's remembrance day was
December 6th.
(or: Why can't people celebrate Christmas at Christmas?)
(no, this isn't a troll, and I won't follow the thread up)
