-=== redis - a node redis client
+redis - a node redis client
+===========================
 
 This is a Redis client for node.  It is designed for node 0.2.1+ and redis 2.0.1+.
+
+Example usage:
+
+    var redis = require("redis"),
+        client = redis.createClient();
+
+    client.on("connect", function () {
+        client.set(["string key", "string val"], function (err, results) {
+            console.log("SET: " + results);
+        });
+        client.hset(["hash key", "hashtest 1", "should be a hash"], function (err, results) {
+            console.log("HSET: " + results);
+        });
+        client.hset(["hash key", "hashtest 2", "should be a hash"], function (err, results) {
+            console.log("HSET: " + results);
+        });
+        client.hkeys(["hash key"], function (err, results) {
+            console.log("HKEYS: " + results);
+        });
+    });
+
+This will display:
+
+    SET: OK
+    HSET: 1
+    HSET: 1
+    HKEYS: hashtest 1,hashtest 2
+
+More instructions will be available as soon as the tests all pass.
