 ## Why node.io?
 
-- Seamlessly distribute work across child processes and servers (soon)
+- Create modular and extensible jobs for scraping and processing data
+- Seamlessly distribute work between child processes and servers (soon)
 - Handles a variety of input / output situations
     * Reading / writing lines to and from files
+    * Reading all files in a directory (and recursing if specified)    
     * To / from a database
     * STDIN / STDOUT
     * Piping between node.io jobs
-    * Any combination of the above
+    * Custom IO / any combination of the above
 - Includes a robust framework for scraping and selecting HTML data
-- Support for proxied requests
-- Provides support for retries and timeouts
+- Support for a variety of proxies when making requests
+- Includes a data validation and sanitization framework
+- Provides support for retries, timeouts, dynamically adding input, etc.
