I just downloaded it. Actually, it's a lot better than I was expecting, especially after all the negative things I've read about it here.

Downloading was quick and easy, I didn't find character creation too complicated at all, and whilst the framte rate was a little jittery, that wasn't really a big deal.

Whilst there isn't much to do, that really isn't the point of Home, and I can't help but feel that everyone complaining about that is completely missing the point of the whole thing. It's all about meeting people and talking with them. It's a glorified chat room. The games and videos and stuff are just a bonus.

And during the ten minutes I spent it Home, I saw plenty of people chatting and laughing together. (And several female avatars being mobbed by attentive male ones.)

I'll probably never load it up again, though. Home it about virtual socialising, and that just doesn't appeal to me, introvert that I am. But I can see it being really popular with other people.
