+This is a plugin to automatically load notices in the browser no
+matter who creates them -- the kind of thing we see with
+search.twitter.com, rejaw.com, or FriendFeed's "real time" news.
+
+It requires a meteor server.
+
+ http://meteorserver.org/
+
+Note that the controller interface needs to be accessible by the Web
+server, and the subscriber interface needs to be accessible by your
+Web users. You MUST firewall the controller interface from users;
+otherwise anyone will be able to push any message to your subscribers.
+Not good!
+
+You can enable the plugin with this line in config.php:
+
+addPlugin('Meteor', array('webserver' => 'meteor server address'));
+
+Available parameters:
+
+* webserver: Web server address. Defaults to site server.
+* webport: port to connect to for Web access. Defaults to 4670.
+* controlserver: Control server address. Defaults to webserver.
+* controlport: port to connect to for control. Defaults to 4671.
+* channelbase: a base string to use for channels. Good if you have
+ multiple sites using the same meteor server.
