It's possibly horribly broken and incomplete, but it's getting there. Pull requests welcome and appreciated.\n\n## installation and usage\n\n    gem sources -a http://gems.github.com\n    sudo gem install holman-brightkitey\n\nTo get a feel for what you're in for, check out the [Brightkite REST API](http://groups.google.com/group/brightkite-api/web/rest-api). The [object reference](http://groups.google.com/group/brightkite-api/web/api-object-reference) might be helpful, too. Some fun things you can do:\n\n### authentication\n    require 'rubygems'\n    require 'brightkitey'\n    \n    Brightkitey.authenticate(:user =\u003e 'dr_strangelove', :password =\u003e 'cant-allow-gaps')\n    Brightkitey.logged_in? # quick login check\n    \n### brightkitein' around\n    \n    me = Brightkitey.me\n    me.friends.first.checkins # =\u003e grab a friend's checkins\n    \n    home = me.checkins.first.place\n    me.checkin(home) # =\u003e check yourself in at home\n    \n    Brightkitey::Place.search(\"arby's\") # =\u003e mmmm... I'm thinking Arby's. If you're logged in, this'll pull in those closest to you first.\n\n## thanks\n\nThe official [Lighthouse](http://github.com/Caged/lighthouse-api) wrapper was fairly helpful for a newbie like me to wrap my head around.
