+by Michael Huynh (mike@mikexstudios.com)
+
+Purpose:
+-------
+
+A very simple wrapper for Firebase's REST API.
+
+How to use
+----------
+
+1.  Install python-firebase using pip:
+
+        pip install -e git://github.com/mikexstudios/python-firebase.git#egg=python-firebase
+        
+    or with easy_install (not recommended):
+
+        easy_install http://github.com/mikexstudios/python-firebase/tarball/master
+
+    Note that python-firebase depends on requests (http://python-requests.org),
+    a REST/http client for python. If you used pip or easy_install, the
+    dependency should automatically be installed. 
+
+2.  Then simply import firebase at the top of your python script:
+
+        from firebase import Firebase
+
+    and then instantiate Firebase, passing in your root url:
+
+        f = Firebase('http://demo.firebase.com/SampleChat')
+
+    Now call the different methods of the Firebase class (see the Firebase
+    REST API page: http://www.firebase.com/docs/rest-api.html and the source of
+    `firebase/__init__.py` for what methods are available and how to call
+    them). For example, to push a list of data:
+
+        r = f.push('message_list', {'user_id': 'wilma', 'text': 'Hello'})
+
+    The response `r` is a dictionary containing Firebase's REST response:
+
+        {"name":"-INOQPH-aV_psbk3ZXEX"}
