Norad Santa… Loading…

Can’t someone at Norad or whoever is responsible for NoradSanta- plan for bandwidth so when I go to show my kids where Santa is - they can actually see something other than a “please wait” screen?    It seems like someone (Google?) should be able to provide some bandwidth for this…
At one point the screen was refreshing and I could have sworn it looked like it was hitting live.com which is the new Microsoft service I think… Bah humbug…

Anyway - hope everyone has a Merry Xmas and safe and happy New Year!  2007 is looking like a great time to be a Coldfusion Developer!

    They use MS’s Virtual Earth, which is why you saw the MS Live. I highly doubt this was the bottleneck :)

    It’s good to know that in a state of emergency NORAD’s bandwidth will be unreliable as a source of information.

    That’s why I don’t host NoradSanta.org :)

    Can we please have the old site back. This is far to ‘teckie’ for young children. The old site where you saw santa just fly around and stop at diffrent countries was a whole lot better for the young ones.
    Merry christmas everyone.
