 <h1>WoTNS</h1>
-<p>Yay, Index!</p>
+<p>The Web of Trust Service uses properties of Web of Trust identities to implement a DNS-like scheme on top of Freenet.</p>
+<p>The general syntax is: <code>http://<%request.host>/tns/<i>identity</i>/<i>target</i></code>.</p>
+<p><i>identity</i> is the nickname of a Web of Trust identity, such as “Bombe”. It is also possible to include the beginning of the identity’s
+key into <i>identity</i>, in the form of <i>nickname@start-of-key</i>, such as “Bombe@e3my”.</p>
+<p>The <i>target</i> consists of a name chosen by the remote identity. It can consist of latin latters, digits, and periods (and the final name
+has to fulfill the Web of Trust’s requirement for a valid property name.</p>
+<p>To be able to add targets for one of your identities, you first have to create an identity using the <a href="/WebOfTrust/">Web of Trust</a>,
+and you have to enable the identity here.</p>
