TAPPER: Welcome back to THE LEAD. I'm Jake Tapper. The Money Lead now, the recent terrorist killings in Paris have sparked such a profound reaction that Apple moved to quickly approve a special app called Je Suis Charlie. A French news agency created the app after the attack at "Charlie Hebdo" magazines. Users can pinpoint their location on a map and label it "Je Suis Charlie." According to Britain's "Telegraph" newspaper, the app's creators say they e-mailed Apple's CEO Tim Cook directly and got a reply 10 minutes later and the app was available within the hour. Typically that process takes a little longer. Remember Y2K and all those fears about super computers crashing? Well, now the movement of time could break the Internet, we're told. This all started when the people who monitor time said that the earth's rotation had actually slowed down so they planned to add a second in June. But that's where computer software may freak out when time keepers made a similar adjustment in 2012 sites like Yelp and Linkedin and Four Square crashed. Leave it to Google to save the day. Back in 2005, Google created a system to gradually add milliseconds to its clock so disaster is averted. Maybe other sites should Google how that process works. Amazon is one step closer to world domination. It just teamed up with Woody Allen to create a new TV series. Right now the creative name for the project, it's untitled. He will write and direct a half hour comedy series. Allen seems thrilled about the project. When asked about, he responded, I don't know how I got into this. I have no ideas and I'm not sure where to begin. The news comes almost a year after new child abuse allegations surfaced against the director. Amazon picked up pick awards for its series "Transparent" at the Golden Globes. That's it for THE LEAD. I am Jake Tapper. "Je Suis Charlie." I turn you over to Wolf Blitzer. He is right next door in "THE SITUATION ROOM."
