 Running the server
 ==================
 
-Run::
+If you want to get things running quickly and without hassle, just
+run::
+
+    ./lazyserver.sh
+
+This will start up a python server where you can begin playing with
+mediagoblin.  It will also run celery in "always eager" mode so you
+don't have to start a separate process for it.
+
+This is fine in development, but if you want to actually run celery
+separately for testing (or deployment purposes), you'll want to run
+the server independently::
 
     ./bin/paster serve server.ini --reload
