Home will be a virtual lobby - a community for the PSN. It will be where you can interact without having to meet in a game or through getting added to a friends list. Also screens in common areas showing game trailers, video blog news and reviews and, of course, ads.
Understand that this will be major news for the PSN users. Its the one thing that XBL still holds over it - a sense of community feeling. Well this changes all that if done right. (Hasn't that always been the big 'if' for Sony?)
Imagine being able to watch E3, GC or TGS broadcast through a common room in Home? Would be well worth using. I think not everyone will use it straight away, but it does try to generate a more community feel which would be a massive boost.
