 ## About
 
-A node.js library for logging to multiple files
+A node.js library for extremely customizable logging
 
 ## Features
 
- * Multiple severity levels (debug, info, warn, fatal) by default
- * Arbitrary user definable severity levels
+ * Arbitrary user definable severity levels with debug, info, warn, fatal by default
+ * Custom output formats
  * Almost all events are listenable
  * Writing to multiple files simultaneously
  * Log rotation (reopening log files on demand)
- * Custom output formats
 
-## Example (Taken from example.js)
+## Simple Example (From simple-example.js)
+
+    var
+      sys = require('sys'),
+      http = require('http'),
+      streamLogger = require('./lib/streamlogger'),
+      logger = new streamLogger.StreamLogger('log1.log');
+      //Defaults to info, debug messages will not be logged at info
+      logger.level = logger.levels.debug;
+
+    http.createServer(function(req, res) {
+      //Other default levels are .debug .warn and .fatal
+      logger.info("My Info message");
+
+      res.writeHead(200);
+      res.write("Hello!");
+      res.end();
+    }).listen(8000);
+
+    //If you want to rotate logs, this will re-open the files on sighup
+    process.addListener("SIGHUP", function() {
+      logger.reopen();
