-============
 
-the power of privnote.com at your fingertips
+# **privnote-cli**: 
+_the power of [privnote.com](https://privnote.com) in your terminal_
+
+#### [privnote.com](https://privnote.com): Send notes that will self-destruct after being read.
+
+Privnote allows you to create one-time-pad encrypted, burn-after-reading notes over the internet. It's a great way to share passwords or other sensitive peices of information. But, you have to use a web browser! Or, should I say, _had_ to.
+
+You've got three options when invoking privnote-cli.
+
+Pass your note as argument(s)
+
+```
+node privnote-cli.js hi my name is alan
+node privnote-cli.js "hello. how are you?"
+```
+
+Pass your note via stdin
+
+```	
+echo "the rain in spain stays mainly in the plain" | node privnote-cli.js
+```
+
+Use a here document to pass multiline notes:
+
+```
+node privnote-cli.js << EOF
+<note-part-1>
+<note-part-2>
+EOF
+```
+
+After invocation, the privnote url will be printed at the commandline. If you use the bash wrapper for osx, it will also be copied to your clipboard.
