 ## Features
+* Multi Threads
 * Time/Date
 * Used Memory
 * Used Disk space
-* Sound volume _reads from `amixer` for now_
-* Easy to configure
-* Minimal
+* Sound volume _reads from `alsa-utils` for now_
+* Easy to configure with `rsblocks.yml` file
 
-## Note
-This tool is still in development stage.

+## Notes

 you good to go now and can run `rsblocks` from your terminal or put that in your `.xinitrc`
 
 ## Configuration
-**rsblocks** will try to read the file `~/.config/rsblocks/rsblocks.yml`, if it does not exist, it will load the defaults.
+#### Notes:
+* **rsblocks** will try to read the file `$HOME/.config/rsblocks/rsblocks.yml`, if it does not exist, it will load the defaults.
+* **rsblocks** will read the configuration file **only** on startup, which means you have to kill it and start it again if you updated your `rsblocks.yml` file.
