+#blapaste
+
+Very simple pastebin clone written in PHP
+
+##Author
+Joe Robinson
+
+Source code of [p.of.je](http://p.of.je)
+
+This is a simple web site where you can paste text and access it via a
+browser. Just go to http://p.of.je, type/paste text into the form, and
+press submit. It will then take you to a page with your text on a page
+with a short URL.
+
+Can also be used with [pastebinit](https://launchpad.net/pastebinit)
+which should be available in package managers for most Linux distros.
+After installing pastebinit, copy the p.of.je.conf file into
+/usr/share/pastebin.d then can be used with -b p.of.je, e.g -
+
+df -h | pastebinit -b http://p.of.je
+
+Will copy the output of df -h to http://p.of.je, then return the URL
+where it can be viewed
+
+Alternatively, host it yourself
