Hosted by Emily Chang with Editor-at-Large Cory Johnson and Senior Correspondent Jon Erlichman from Bloomberg's San Francisco studio, it showcases the personalities, companies and trends that are transforming the global economy. Watch this video for an in-depth discussion and demonstration on how and where the Facebook Home application will be used.....
Facebook Home aspires to change the mobile phone experience at large, even though it's not an operating system!
The Facebook Home application is designed to completely take over the home screen of smartphones. This will not be a typical app where you have to search for it, tap on it, and wait for it to open up so you can use it. Facebook Home will come to life the second you visit your smartphone's home screen! The initial phones to roll out will only cost $99. HTC and Samsung will be early adopters. Apple's iPhone is said to also be in line to implement Facebook Home on its devices! Watch the video below for a full in-depth discussion (with clips from Mark Zuckerberg himself) on how and why he decided to implement the Facebook Home technology the way he did. Said Mark Zuckerberg, "Just building a new operating system would limit what we want to do with this technology."
