    Have anybody noticed that? It usually begins at 07:00 GMT, but now I see the previous day finished and there are earnings dated 12th March, however, it's only 06:30 GMT now.

    nothing weird..

    its called DST (Daylight Saving Time) which is CST-1 or EST-1.

    Hope that clarifies why your adsense day has started 1 hour early

    I think it depends on where the google server is located.

    It doesn't matter if nobody else in the world switches or not...All that matters is the time in California (when midnight is)

    Since they switched their clocks, everyones AdSense day changes.

    As yfs1 says, it doesn't matter what happens elsewhere it is what happens at Adsense HQ what matters and they threw the clocks forward for DST ON Sunday.

    Which made a lot more sense and was a lot more useful when people didn't just flip the TV on and let it run all hours regardless of the time :) I bet a lot more energy could be saved if programming only ran during the day lol

    United States changed their clock at 11 March and Europe will change time at 25 March

    On August 8, 2005, President George W. Bush signed the Energy Policy Act of 2005. This Act changed the time change dates for Daylight Saving Time in the U.S. Beginning in 2007, DST will begin on the second Sunday in March and end the first Sunday in November. The Secretary of Energy will report the impact of this change to Congress. Congress retains the right to resume the 2005 Daylight Saving Time schedule once the Department of Energy study is complete.

    When do we change our clocks?
