+cpplog
+======
+
 A simple, header-only, MIT-licensed C++ logging library.
 
+The layout of this library is based on Google's logging library (http://code.google.com/p/google-glog/), but does not use any code copied from that project.
+
+## Installation
+
+```sh
+git clone https://github.com/andrew-d/cpplog.git
+cd cpplog
+mkdir build && cd build
+cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr
+make && make install
+```
+
+Note: you can change `-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr` to any install prefix.
+
+## Usage
+
 Basic usage example:
 
+```cpp
     StdErrLogger log;
     LOG_WARN(log) << "Log message here" << std::endl;
     CHECK_EQUAL(log, 1 == 2) << "Some other message" << std::endl;
     CHECK_STREQ(log, "a", "a") << "Strings should be equal" << std::endl;
+```

+## Thanks
 
-Thanks to GitHub's fakechris, there is experimental support for logging to a Scribe node (see: https://github.com/facebook/scribe for more information).  It requires Apache Thrift (http://thrift.apache.org/).  To use it, #define CPPLOG_WITH_SCRIBE_LOGGER

 NOTE: Tests are relatively complete, but not exhaustive.  Please use at your own risk, and feel free to submit bug reports.
