passage: (CNN) -- Think half-eaten cookies and carrots are the only way to prove it was actually Santa who put that reindeer sweater under your Christmas tree? Think again. Thanks to Google and the North American Aerospace Defense Command, also known as NORAD, you can track old Saint Nick on his Christmas Eve journey around the globe. Log on to Noradsanta.org to view a special Google Map displaying Santa's whereabouts. The map, which launched at 2 a.m. EST on Friday, uses little red and yellow presents to note the places Santa has already visited.
