-collaborated on at [RedHanded] [1], built out a gem suitable for
-inclusion in Rails projects (and standalone Ruby code).

+Note: This library is based on _why's `bumpspark' code, originally discussed and
+collaborated on at [RedHanded] [1].  It has been refactored and built out as
+a gem suitable for inclusion in Rails projects (and standalone Ruby code).
+
+Bumpsparks are sparklines which show discrete data points and highlight 
+extremes.  If you like Tufte and _why, you'll probably like these.
