 - $abt_config global variable (for https://github.com/iron-io/abt)
-- test directory
 - directory of file that calls UberConfig.load
 - working directory
+- TODO: look at ~/configs directory
 - ~/Dropbox/configs/#{working_directory_name}
 
 :dir can be used to change working_directory_name.
 
+## Helper methods
+
+### Symbolize Keys
+
+When it loads up config files, the hash keys will be strings by default because they are
+strings in the files. You can convert them to keys by running `UberConfig.symbolize_keys!`, for example:
+
+    config = UberConfig.load
+    config = UberConfig.symbolize_keys!(config)
