 #### How it works
 
 1. PagePark will automatically create a *prefs* sub-folder and a *domains* sub-folder. 
 
 2. Add your web content under domains. Each folder's name is the name of a domain. The contents within the folder are what we serve. <a href="http://scripting.com/2015/01/04/pageParkFolderScreenShot.png">Screen shot</a>.

 9. There are three special endpoints on all domains: /version, /now and /status that return the version of PagePark that's running, the time on the server and the stats and prefs.

-Here's a <a href="http://scripting.com/2015/01/04/pageParkFolderScreenShot.png">screen shot</a> of my PagePark server folder. 
+The first time you run PagePark it will open on port 1339. You can change this by editing prefs.json in the prefs folder. 
+
+This means if you want to access a page on your site, the URL will be of the form:
+
+http://myserver.com:1339/somepage.html
+
+The normal port for HTTP is 80. That would have been the natural default, however a lot of Unix servers require the app to be running in supervisor mode in order for it to open on port 80. You can do this by launching PagePark this way:
+
+sudo node pagepark.js
+
+I made the default 1339 because I wanted it to work "out of the box" for first-time users.

 #### Updates
 
+##### v0.48 1/8/15 by DW
+
+The default port the server boots up on is now 1339. Previously it was 80, which is the standard port for HTTP, but on many OSes this requires PagePark to be running in supervisor mode. I added docs above to explain this. 
+
+Changed package.json so that only *request* and *marked* were listed as dependencies. Apparently the others are included in Node without having to list them. 
+
+Instead of keeping our own MIME type table, we use the Node *mime* package, which is also included as a dependency in the package.json file.

 ##### v0.47 1/7/15 by DW
 
 Added a package.json file to the repository.
