It's been fine for me. What sucks about it?

Genuinely curious.

I have no expectations whatsoever from this conference. I'll be happy if they reveal a faster Facebook app for Android.

c'mon son, Facebook is a small company and they've been working on the android app for only a brief time. Be patient.

Is this why the web page was down for a little bit earlier?

Vanillalite · Apr 4, 2013

According to the Verge...

It's possible we could start late. Scuttlebutt is that a shuttle from San Francisco was delayed because President Obama is in town. No word on whether Mr. Obama wants News Feed on his homescreen.

Might be a start delay.... always happens for this shit. Nobody is ever fucking on time.

bob page · Apr 4, 2013

The phone itself is going to fail miserably. I'm interested to see if they revamp the Android app, though.

It's this going to be a phone then?I thought it was going to be a launcher?

It's going to be both. The HTC Phone will just have the launcher preinstalled.

The Verge..

Press and various special guests are streaming in and sitting down. Four screens, a single podium, dark blue mood lighting, and some chill music all set the scene. Everybody is still people-spotting.

It's been fine since they rebuilt it a couple months ago. Still inferior to the G+ app, but fine overall.

I'm assuming it's coming to all current flagship Android phones.

This is Facebook, so rolling out slowly to 0.00001% of devices on April 12th, then everyone else in a few years maybe unless you're on the waiting list, in which case much longer.

"What if we didn't design phones so that they're apps first," but instead were "people first?" he asks.

"Well, it would feel really different." Ok. Now for a history lesson, he's visually comparing current smartphone UIs to Windows 3.1. Ouch?

"Today, we're going to focus on Android. The great thing about Android is that it's so open."
"You don't need to fork Android," he says, to get to what Facebook wants to do.
