-Before you can use the mastodon API, you have to register your application (which gets you a client key and client secret) 
-and then log in (which gets you an access token). These functions allow you to do those things.
-For convenience, once you have a client id, secret and access token, you can simply pass them to the constructor of the class, too!
+`Mastodon`_ is an ostatus based twitter-like federated social 
+network node. It has an API that allows you to interact with its 
+every aspect. This is a simple python wrapper for that api, provided
+as a single python module. By default, it talks to the 
+`Mastodon flagship instance`_, but it can be set to talk to any 
+node running Mastodon.
 
-Note that while it is perfectly reasonable to log back in whenever your app starts, registering a new application on every 
-startup is not, so don't do that - instead, register an application once, and then persist your client id and secret. Convenience
+For complete documentation on what every function returns, 
+check the `Mastodon API docs`_, or just play around a bit.
