So why did I start Homez(which used to be called Zyle)?

I started HomeZ because I wanted to explore several concepts at once. I wanted to explore other dock uset nterfaces for the home screen. But more importantly I wanted to see how we could incoporate OEM branding into the HomeScreen without hitting the user over the head with it. Obviously in the above example that development screen with the Moto Logo could have some livefolders and what are called aliases on that as shortcuts. This way when the user flings a page they are remided of the brand by the thumbnail popup and would choose that page if needing to update serivces and etc.

We could even make use of that middle bottom panel which wil be a delete zone by putting the OEM logo there.
