I guess watching adsense is becoming an obsession with many :)
They could be doing server upgrades, or who knows - I don't think there was a definitive answer to why they were down for so long on Monday morning. A little note of "you may experience delays with updating stats for the next couple of hours due to server maintenance" or something along those lines after you have logged in would be nice. And it would save us from these huge "is AdSense down" threads ;)
mallu, not only AdSense stat watching an obsession, it is a sport :)

I agree with you on this one :) It would help avoids ulcers as well ;)

That will stop our staff wasting time clicking on the "results" 4 or 5 times a day and slowing down on writing content... All the other rev reports we have are at most daily i think!
Actually iid like it so it only updates once a day.

I would hate if they did updating of the stats only once a day. It's so much fun to check your stats at regular intervals and other than that it also helps to test out different layouts, etc for the most optimum results and check out stats to confirm any changes in the result.
You could always ask your staff to check the stats only once a day ;)

What? Only check four or five times a day? I check that many times in an hour. ;)

people, start producing valuable content, instead of watching your google adsense account. if you will take care of the first, then the second will take care of itself...
This is like waiting for a snail to move ;-P
I am dealing in quite large numbers, and I am happy that the correct results are being shown at the end of the day
The question is do we get the correct results after the stats freese and then start moving again. Recently twice we have had a problem with the stats being delayed for a considerable amount of time, stats seem to be catching up afterwards, but do they really display accurate info in the end? Both this days i have had a drop in Impressions reported from 30-50% compared to usual i would expect for such day. Also site statistics show that the number of visitors to the site was on a normal, expected level. Something does not fit.
Although I am happy with the end results I have to agree with falkon that the numbers should be higher on some days where there is a delay.

For me, during both such times the impressions & CTR registered on my sites were as usual, but the revenue earned was far more than what I expected. So I await such outages per week ;)
My experience has also been that during the (few) outages so far I have earned disproportionately more money for the same traffic than I had been earning just before the outage, and than I earned just after the outage finished
Join the gang, Edwin ;) Pray to god for more outages ;)
On the side, I believe its giving a little more to make those agitated webmasters happy :)
2 impressions
3 clickthroughs
150% clickthrough rate.
Now THAT's a performance to aim for, provided it doesn't trip any 'fraud filters'!

Interestingly enough, unlike previous outages, while today is already catching up, I'm still seeing increases for yesterday.
SN, during the previous long outage which lasted many hours, I refreshed my stats section in vain, only to realize later that the new days stats were being recorded in the previous day. I don't know why and how that happened, but now things are back to normal :)
Could it be that google keeps some impressions back pending some sort of check and then ads them back in several days later?
