Why I made HomeScreenShot.com
This past Friday I made a simple project called HomeScreenShot. It’s a project to collect mobile homescreen screenshots. That’s it.

Why?
A homescreen says a lot about you. The mobile is the most intimate screen a person has. It’s always in your pocket. It gets your attention if you have any spare second. Showing others how you customize your most private screen, what you use most and taking a snapshot of that to share reveals a lot about someone.
This generation’s most personal artifact is held on mobile…so this provides insight into people/strangers minds and habits in a unique way.
How?
Just take a screenshot from your mobile (easy on iPhone and WebOS, easy on rooted Android, and app otherwise) and upload it to homescreenshot.com/submit
Then what?
I’ll post a few everyday, and you can start to see what your friends are using, and what their screen looks like.
Who cares?
It’s something that we see everyday, and really tells a story. I’ll add a few posts here and on homescreenshot.com talking about what a homescreen tells about the poster.
Next?
Post yours and tell your friends! I’d love to see screens come in, and see what we can discover about the people from their homescreenshots.
