Santa Claus is coming to Chrome
Tuesday, December 18, 2012
On Christmas Eve, as Santa makes his way across the world, you can follow his progress and keep tabs on how many presents he’s delivered with the
Google Maps’s Santa Tracker
. And this year Santa’s developer elves went a bit further. They created a Chrome extension that enables you to simultaneously browse the web on your Chrome Browser and follow Santa along his route. Simply install the
Santa Tracker Chrome extension
from the Chrome Web Store.
Before Santa takes off on Christmas Eve, you can also use the extension to follow the countdown to his departure, play around with his blimp, elf bus, and write messages on a frosty browser window.
While everyone in Santa’s Village is busy gearing up for the big day, they always make time for visitors. You can meet some elves and ask
Santa to make a personal phone call
to a friend or your family.
For more ways to get holiday inspired Chrome themes, apps, and extensions, check out the holiday collection in the
Chrome Web Store
- including the
Santa Tracker chrome theme
. And, if you don’t have Chrome yet, give it a
spin
.
Happy holidays from all of us at Google!
