Google is getting into the Christmas spirit by letting you track Santa on Google Earth or Maps; watch highlights from the man-in-red's magical journey on YouTube; and even leave him a voicemail on his Google Voice Number.

Google has once again teamed up with the Northern American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) to keep an exact fix on the jolly old elf's location in real time. This year, according to Google and NORAD, Santa's 2010 route plan includes over 200 countries and territories worldwide. You can follow Santa starting at 2 a.m. Eastern Friday morning using the Google Earth Web browser plug-in, Google Maps for mobile or desktop, Twitter and Facebook. The best part is you can teach your child a little about the world while satisfying their curiosity about Santa's annual journey.

Here's how you to keep tabs on Santa during Christmas Eve 2010.
