It's a solution looking for a problem. I see this all the time in big corporations. Facebook probably thought, "We need to make something mobile, so what should that be? How about a home screen? Yeah that sounds OK". Organizations like Facebook don't start with the problem and come up with a solution, but instead think "how could we leverage X?", "what could we do with Y?", "can we exploit this synergy here?". Once they find something that sounds like a plausible thing to build, they keep telling themselves that it's solving a real problem until they themselves believe it.
