The internet would be pretty cumbersome without search engines. You're used to searching the net with tools like Google and Yahoo. And maybe Firefox and Chrome.

How about a new search engine?

Welcome back! Christmas isn't quite over yet. Did you know that the Christmas season lasts from December 25th t0 January 5th! http://www.cresourcei.org/cy12days.html

Since it still is Christmas (technically), let's warmup today with something seasonal.

NORAD stands for North American Aerospace Defense Command. NORAD is responsible for keeping us safe from enemy attack. NORAD provides warning of impending missile and air attack, safeguards the air sovereignty of North America, and maintains airborne forces for defense against attack. NORAD performs this important mission 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Check it out @ http://www.norad.mil/

What's interesting is that NORAD also tracks Santa. Look it up @ http://www.norad.mil/News/2008/112508.html and @ http://www.noradsanta.org/en/home.html.
