 You will need:

   * Casperjs
   * Phantomjs
-  * Node
   * A facebook account
+Here is a little tutorial on how to install CasperJs and PhantomJs on Debian stable: https://www.dvdheiden.nl/2013/07/30/installing-phantomjs-and-casperjs-on-linux/
 == Usage: ==
+If you just want to run it by "hand", go into the directory where you downloaded the loveMachine and execute this command:
 <code bash>caserjs loveMachine.js --email=<fb_login> --password=<fb_password></code>
+If you want to setup a cron every hour, you will have to write a crontab like this:
+<file txt loveCron>0 */1 * * *  PHANTOMJS_EXECUTABLE=/usr/local/bin/phantomjs /usr/local/bin/casperjs /home/juego/loveMachine/casperjs/loveMachine.js --email=<fb_login> --password=<fb_password> > loveMachine.log</file>
+You'll have to also set this line at the beginning of loveMachine.js file to an absolute path:
+<code javascript>
+var casper = require('casper').create({
+    clientScripts: [
+        'include/jquery-1.10.2.min.js' // <- Change this to an absolute path
+    ],
+</code>

 ==== Future? ====
 Some thoughts regarding the possible evolution of the script:
-  * Like on comments? ads? pages?
+  * Like ads? pages?
   * Turn it into a one-click-setup-and-play application
-  * Use FB Graph API? (ethical dilemma)
