+Running The Demo Web Client
+===========================
+
+The homeserver runs a web client by default at https://localhost:8448/.
+
+If this is the first time you have used the client from that browser (it uses
+HTML5 local storage to remember its config), you will need to log in to your
+account. If you don't yet have an account, because you've just started the
+homeserver for the first time, then you'll need to register one.
+
+Registering A New Account
+-------------------------
+
+Your new user name will be formed partly from the hostname your server is
+running as, and partly from a localpart you specify when you create the
+account. Your name will take the form of::
+
+    @localpart:my.domain.here
+         (pronounced "at localpart on my dot domain dot here")
+
+Specify your desired localpart in the topmost box of the "Register for an
+account" form, and click the "Register" button. Hostnames can contain ports if
+required due to lack of SRV records (e.g. @matthew:localhost:8448 on an
+internal synapse sandbox running on localhost).
+
+If registration fails, you may need to enable it in the homeserver (see
+`Synapse Installation`_ above)

-================
-
-As of Synapse 0.9, `PostgreSQL <http://www.postgresql.org>`_ is supported as an
-alternative to the `SQLite <http://sqlite.org/>`_ database that Synapse has

-The advantages of Postgres include:

-* significant performance improvements due to the superior threading and
-  caching model, smarter query optimiser
-* allowing the DB to be run on separate hardware
-* allowing basic active/backup high-availability with a "hot spare" synapse
-  pointing at the same DB master, as well as enabling DB replication in
-  synapse itself.
