Google’s Santa Tracker 2.0 Slides Down The Play Store Chimney

‘Twas the first of December, when in the Play Store

Came an app that we’d all seen just one year before.

A Santa tracker made kids really keen

with a sizeable update for Twenty-Fourteen.

Google Santa Tracker’s new interface

lets you keep up with Saint Nick’s overnight race.

With help from Maps and the big guy himself,

any rosy-cheeked kid can track the old elf.

When watching Santa go off on a tear,

this year you can track him from Android Wear.

It supports Android TV, unlike years past

and still plays along with the thrifty Chromecast.

  

Games, quizzes, puzzles, and a Flappy Bird clone

keep the kids occupied on the long sleigh ride home.

And a big central clock counts the days of the year

’til Santa flies by with eight nine reindeer.

On Asus, on Moto, on Samsung and LG,

on Huawei and HTC, OnePlus and Sony,

get your Christmas cheer on with a single free app

and follow The Claus as he zooms ’round the map.

We didn’t make all of this crap up, of course.

We got it from here: Google Maps is the source.
