Cyber Monday (Black Friday’s Online Cousin)

This is news to me, but apparently there’s a twofer after Thanksgiving nowadays: first Black Friday, and then Cyber Monday. According to Wikipedia, the term was coined in 2005 and refers to the kickoff of the US online holiday shopping season. The Cyber Monday website lists deals that are mostly available elsewhere, too, but donates a portion of proceeds to eCommerce career scholarships through the Ray M. Greenly Scholarship Fund.

Will you be cybershopping tomorrow?
