I love it when technology plays its part in making holidays more exciting and cheerful through fun applications, campaigns and even creative graphics. It's not just the Christmas carols, shopping sprees, festival food and vibrant colors that remind you of Christmas, it's also your Mac, PC, iPhone, iPad and other nifty gadgets, that keep your Christmas spirit going.

Like this app called, 'Send a Call From Santa' by Google, that lets you send your family and friends free personalized phone call from Santa after taking all the necessary details of the recipient from you. "So while the red suit may never go out of style, this year Santa has come up with an extra special way to spread the holiday cheer." shares Google.







You begin with giving your details like your birthday and gender to Santa. He will then ask you the recipient's name and also how the name is pronounced. If there is a complicated name involved, there are chances that you may not find that name in the list, in such a case, you can use generic terms like, 'brother from another mother', 'dude', 'dudette', 'little angel', 'ninja', 'schmoopie', 'punk' or anything else that you find to be appropriate.

He will then ask you for information like, your relationship with the recipient, location, favorite things, Christmas wishlist, favorite food, nicknames, etc. Once you give in all the information, just give Santa your phone number and the recipients' number and he will personally deliver your Christmas message.

Happy holidays!
