+unlike `OpenStruct`, `Blobject`s can be arbitrarily *complex* which means you can do this...
 
     data = Blobject.new
+      => {}
 
     data.name.first   = "Johnny"
     data.name.surname = "Begood"
+      => {:name=>{:first=>"Johnny", :surname=>"Begood"}}
 
     data.my.object.with.deep.nested.members = "happy place"
+      => {:name=>{:first=>"Johnny", :surname=>"Begood"}, :my=>{:object=>{:with=>{:deep=>{:nested=>{:members=>"happy place"}}}}}}
 
+You can assign hashes which become nested blobjects
+
+  data.details = { code: 41239, ref: "#22322" }
+
+  data.details.code
+    => 41239
+  data.details.code = 11322
+  data.details.code
+    => 11322
+  data.details.ref
+    => "#22322"
+
+
 You can test to see if a member is defined:
 
     data.something_here?
       => false
+    data.name?
+      => true
 
+You can use it like a hash
 
+    data[:name]
+      => {:first=>"Johnny", :surname=>"Begood"}
 
+    data[:name][:first] = "Jimmy"; data[:name]
+      => {:first=>"Jimmy", :surname=>"Begood"}
+
+    data.empty?
+      => false
+
+    data.name == {:first=>"Jimmy", :surname=>"Begood"}
+      => true
+
+You can get access to the internal hash with `Blobject#hash` or a de-blobjectified copy with `Blobject#to_hash`
+
+You can call `Blobject#freeze` to prevent the data being modified. This still allows chained calls: `blobject.data.nested.is_something_here?` but assignments will raise `RuntimeError: can't modify frozen Hash`
+
+You can work with JSON data using `Blobject.from_json` and `Blobject#to_json`, in Rails, you can use `Blobject#as_json` as you would with a hash.
+
+You can work with YAML data using `Blobject.from_yaml` and `Blobject#to_yaml`.
