For a Jolly Good Time, Chat With Santa on Windows Live Messenger

This year families can avoid the lines to see Santa at the mall and spend
time at home together chatting with Santa Claus through Windows Live
Messenger.

REDMOND, Wash. — Dec. 13, 2006 — Ho, ho, ho! This year there is
another way for kids to share Christmas wish lists with Santa Claus. Using
Windows Live™ Messenger, parents can spend time with their kids chatting in real
time with Santa online. Customers can simply add Santa’s address, Northpole@live.com, to their Windows Live Messenger
contact list and instantly open a conversation window to communicate with Saint
Nick. Kids will enjoy immediate responses from the jolly big man himself through
an interactive online chat, and they can even visit Santa’s page on Windows Live
Spaces at http://santaonspaces.spaces.live.com. Filling Santa
in on Christmas wishes and asking all about how the reindeer are doing or what’s
new at the North Pole are a few of the things kids can talk to Santa about.
Santa can even tell kids where they stand on his list: naughty or nice.

Starting Christmas Eve morning, kids can check in with Santa through Windows
Live Messenger to follow his journey around the world. As Santa circles the
globe delivering gifts, kids who ask him where he is or when he will arrive at
their house will be directed to the North American Aerospace Defense Command
(NORAD) Santa-tracking site through a link in the conversation window. More
information on chatting with Santa through Windows Live Messenger can be found
at http://santaonmessenger.com

Would you like to be on Santa’s nice list?

Hello kids!

I hope you are all as excited as Mrs. Claus and I am for Christmas! Our elves
are working hard in the toy shop creating special surprises for children all
around the world. The reindeer have been getting extra exercise everyday in
preparation for our long trip on Christmas eve. We are hoping for lots of snow
before Christmas but clear skies on Christmas eve so that we can drop off even
more gifts this year.

If you have been good this year you should ask your parents to add your first
name to the comments section.  I am sure I already have you on my good list, but
I will have one of the elves double check just to make sure.

Ho Ho Ho!
Merry Christmas!

– Santa Claus
