Live blog: Facebook’s new Home on Android

After years of rumors about a Facebook phone, the company is going to be addressing mobile in a big way Thursday morning at its headquarters in Menlo Park, Calif., with plans to discuss “our new Home on Android,” according to invitations sent out last week. The event starts at 10am PT, and we’ll have live coverage here.

Eliza will be down in Menlo Park with Om Malik, while Kevin Tofel weighs in from the East Coast on the developments of the morning. For a preview of what to expect, check out Kevin’s piece from earlier this week, which examines what the HTC-branded Facebook experience phone might look like and how it might affect the mobile market.
