CNET Update - Facebook wants to rule the phone with Home

More than just an app, Facebook's latest product is a new skin for Android devices. Bridget Carey explains how Facebook Home changes the interface of a phone.

It seems like a decent idea in my opinion, I'll stick with my iPhone though. Bridget is awesome, love her.

their current app uses more memory than the android UI uses when the app is fully closed. So just imagine how much this feature is going to use, forget about being able to play the newest graphic heavy games.

Youtube phone: where random youtube videos are my wallpaper

Imagine the amount of BS your friends could do without even having to open the phone.

I see why there is no facebook new app for iphone. I guess Apple will never let someone take over their iconic desktop....

I'm homesick, but now Facebook makes me sick of home.

[ColePearl]

Just think how buggy their mobile apps are and how long it took just to get where they are at now... I feel lag coming along.

That must have seemed like good idea in their heads but in reality fb photos aren't that good

See facebook, think facebook, dream facebook, eat facebook, what else does mark zuckerberg want???

[vehzee]

they can make a whole new launcher but they can't make a tablet app

[TheMonkeyFarted]

If anyone has that then they should get some real friends.

Is this another thing that everybody hates but evetybody buys?

[EB-coffee]

How can Facebook not see that this is a bad idea?

[dariusshu_]

this should be a new fb app rather than a launcher !

@EmersonCastro lol.. I think for most of us It really is.. I mean most people use more than just Facebook.. I don't see this becoming a hit.

[aburtona]

Why? FB apps are good enough, without having random Instagram style photo nonsense as my home screen.

"yay i just bought the htc first!" "why did i bought this

[neoxis]

This would be cool if it was an app where it would change the entire skin like Cyanogend mod...but an entire phone? GG.
