 - **RPC Client/Server** - The client and server leverage the above features and provide a clean simple interface for building microservices.

 Hello John

+## Writing a Function
+
+Go Micro includes the Function programming model. This is the notion of a one time executing Service which operates much like a service except exiting 
+after completing a request. A function is defined much like a service and called in exactly the same way.
+
+### Defining a Function
+
+```go
+package main
+
+import (
+	proto "github.com/micro/examples/function/proto"
+	"github.com/micro/go-micro"
+	"golang.org/x/net/context"
+)
+
+type Greeter struct{}
+
+func (g *Greeter) Hello(ctx context.Context, req *proto.HelloRequest, rsp *proto.HelloResponse) error {
+	rsp.Greeting = "Hello " + req.Name
+	return nil
+}
+
+func main() {
+	// create a new function
+	fnc := micro.NewFunction(
+		micro.Name("go.micro.fnc.greeter"),
+	)
+
+	// init the command line
+	fnc.Init()
+
+	// register a handler
+	fnc.Handle(new(Greeter))
+
+	// run the function
+	fnc.Run()
+}
+```
+
+It's that simple.
+
 ## How does it work?
