-Payload.js is a javascript single page application (SPA) driver that creates a global `Payload` object to automate API requests and render [Handlebars](http://handlebarsjs.com/) templates or raw HTML data within the DOM. Payload.js's behaviors are initialized by calling `Payload.deliver()` with a default object of options, and are further controlled by setting various HTML `data-` attributes on DOM objects.
+Payload.js is a javascript single page application (SPA) driver that allows you to automate and manage REST API requests and render [Handlebars](http://handlebarsjs.com/) templates or raw HTML from the response data. It also allows you to render Handlebars templates with expressions populated by data in memory, and includes a **pub/sub**, or **publish/subscribe**, API for managing custom events.
 
-When DOM objects imbued with Payload.js's selectors are activated, a call to `Payload.apiRequest()` is performed, which involves making a XHR request and/or rendering a template. Payload.js also contains template/response caching and an event system as additional means of integration.
