Spokane police told local news station KXL they received reports of a bomb threat earlier in the evening. Normal operations at the Spokane airport resumed later in the evening. Well, the suspect in that mass shooting in Philadelphia told police he did it to clean up the streets. That's according to law enforcement sources, accused Man Kim Brady carrier was arraigned yesterday on five counts of murder. CNN.

Well, as we mentioned, Twitter officially has a major competitor and this one comes from rival Mark Zuckerberg's meta Instagram launching the threads app, a text based social media platform in more than 100 countries yesterday and already people are dubbing it. The Twitter killer users can sign up directly from their Instagram account and it allows for more than 2 billion monthly active users to instantly import their accounts into their threads. The app has a scroll feed and allows posts of up to 500 characters and also gives you the ability to add photos and videos users can engage by liking, commenting and reposting yesterday. Meta ceo Mark Zuckerberg posted what seemed to be his very first tweet on Twitter in a decade. It was this that popular Spiderman meme making an apparent nod to the ongoing feud between him and fellow tech giant Elon Musk. Now, as I mentioned at the top of the show, Michelle NBC News already reporting 23 million sign ups. Zuckerberg was threating. That's what I'm about to start getting used to always saying now, sort of the updates throughout the night on this. And apparently according to NBC news, even though this was taken off of Twitter, in terms of the trending page page threads was one of the most talked about things on Twitter yesterday. Even though you would never have known it. If you went to the trending page on Twitter, you know, this isn't out of the wheelhouse for Zuckerberg. If you've noticed me had a really good success at copying other popular apps out there, Instagram stories of course, taking off from Snapchat and other things that we've seen before in the past. Now, what I do think is interesting about threads is the fact that you can bring over all your users from Instagram's platform. Now, this is a huge advantage for someone who is an influencer or a brand who doesn't want to start from scratch. That's one of the biggest barriers for entry at starting a new platform trying to build up that audience and when you can port it over, it's already a big. So I think that's why we're seeing a lot of people. Yeah, you mentioned by the way, some glitches for some users, the other sort of two quick things I've noticed on here. You have no ability right now to direct message anybody that obviously would be something that they have to fix. There's no live capability on it. So this obviously would impact breaking news and sports that obviously would be something that they'd have to fix. And you can only use it on the app on your phone. There is no sort of desktop web version of that. But again, early out of the gates seems like the reviews so far, pretty positive.
