Facebook Intros 'Facebook Home' Android Launcher; HTC First

[exfileme]

It's not a phone. It's not an OS. It's a launcher replacement for Android, putting your friends first instead of apps.

putting your friends first

If Facebook was more honest, it would be:

putting your private info up for sale first

it's time for Facebook to close shop

...and that's why they have not put out a decent FB app for Android.
Not that I care about FB, but complaints about the abysmal app have been all over the net.
They were cooking a bastardized Android-based OS, and for people that don't want that sub-par phone they came up with a launcher.

Whatever. I still won't use FB.

their only motive in developing this is to access your personal data, launchers get granted lots of rights and have full access to knowing what apps you use.
just more of your info for FB to sell.

While they compare this to Amazon's Kindle (and rumored upcoming phone), the big difference is Amazon has an ecosystem. Facebook has...status updates. That's hardly something to base a phone device on. I'm not saying it can't happen, but I'll be shocked if this gains ground.

in fb, i see more ads listed first than updates from my friends

There was already a facebook based phone and it sucked and disappeared.
