+What is this?
+------------
+
+PsiTurk is an open framework for conducting custom behvioral experiments on
+Amazon's Mechanical Turk. 
+
+It is intended to provide most of the backend machinery necessary to run your
+experiment. It uses AMT's _External Question_ HIT type, meaning that you can
+collect data using any website. As long as you can turn your experiment into a
+website, you can run it with PsiTurk!
+
+Requirements
+------------
+
+You will need to use a relatively recent version of [Python 2](http://python.org) with the following
+modules installed:
+
+ * [Flask](http://flask.pocoo.org/) --- A lightweight web framework.
+ * [SQLAlchemy](http://www.sqlalchemy.org/) --- A powerful SQL abstraction layer.
