a lot of trucks are were out tryi to be proactive, trying lay down some salt and get thin going.a 7-eleven station here i had an opportunity to talk to a couple drivers to t their though on road conditions ther morning. >> probably ab4:30 it stard snowing. i was hoping it would be a li more than what it was, but, oh, well. were the roads? >> roads were fine. >> rep so if you take a pe out here we're starting to see a of dusting, a li snow but flakes are certy coming down as we mentio schools are cancel charl county for all the other updates on closur make sure you check out the new nbc 4 app. report live in prince county zachary kiesch news 4. >> a lot more traffic than you'd for this time of morning conside weather. >> and everything s so well salt overnight. all the department trpgs have en out there working so chems work we with those temper. so anyth treated is just wet, but an untreated is gettin slick. snow is moving across virginia into maryland across the ea shore. bright white bands where it's comi down harder getting one of those right now in warren and clarkes and nort

>> well, there's always that dynamic and that's exactly what the instant time liline is tryi to help them get through. you get somebody who comes on, uses the service for one or two days and there's not a lot of engaging content there, so they end up not coming back the next month, so they're not counted in the monthly user count. twitter is still very early on in developing itself for a platform and media property instantly engaging for users. at their analyst's day a few days ago, they announced a whole bunch of product changes that they plan on implementing over the coming months. they've been pretty much ahead of schedule in letting all of those come out since the analyst day. so we're pretty encouraged by the pace of execution so far. >> with the drop of the prices, how much of a difference can anthony make in this quarter and going forward? did he move the needle for twitter? >> i think he's a great manager, a lot of credibility with investors and i think that he'll be very good for the company. i also think that twitter has a really good management team. i think the board has

and eric tryied to push this. things are not that dire in the united states. they've slowed down but we're not in a crisis. we are, i would say in a crisis in terms of employment rates, the point that came up that larry -- i think that is connected to this. my concern about this decline in dynamism and flexibility is, i'll say, both at the top and the bottom. at top, are we poised to take advantage of all these technological changes or is that going to happen elsewhere? are we going to fall behind or not be as successful as werp in the 1990s when the economy was rocking? i'm probably even more concerned, it doesn't seem we're accommodating that nearly as well. the worker whose get caught up in this -- what used to be happening, because we were such a dynamic and flexible economy, other opportunities were arising. they're not. and so i think they're just not participating in the labor market. >> so, i guess what i would like to say is that another of the many pieces of david otter's work, which actually suggest that -- there's the issue of demand and the fact t
