Follow-up to my earlier post (now that Monday is over):

EPC was much higher than usual (with "usual" being about 40 percent higher than the same time last year), but CTR wasn't, resulting in an eCPM that was poor by historical standards.

In other words, it was a pretty normal day in terms of AdSense earnings. In terms of traffic, it was a barnburner: the highest visitor volume in a long time, despite the fact that my site doesn't cater to a "Cyber Monday" shopping audience.
