+# NilObject
+Very simple Null Object pattern implementation. Avdi Grimm has a blog post that gives an excellent introduction to the pattern in Ruby: http://devblog.avdi.org/2011/05/30/null-objects-and-falsiness/
+
+## Installation
+
+Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
+
+    gem 'nil_object'
+
+And then execute:
+
+    $ bundle
+
+Or install it yourself as:
+
+    $ gem install nil_object
+
+## Usage
+
+Wherever you want a NilObject simply instantiate one with NilObject.new, conversion methods (such as to_s, to_i, etc.) work like they would on nil, method_missing will return self.
+
+You can extend NilObject to create your own variations of NilObjects as you please.
+
+## Contributing
+
+1. Fork it
+2. Create your feature branch (`git checkout -b my-new-feature`)
+3. Commit your changes (`git commit -am 'Add some feature'`)
+4. Push to the branch (`git push origin my-new-feature`)
+5. Create new Pull Request
