Features and usage are summarized on the homepage.
Quick Install to /usr/local
Run http://gist.github.com/323731 and afterwards, install Xcode.

Alright then… as long as you know what you are doing:
sudo chown -R $USER /usr/local
curl -Lsf http://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/tarball/master | tar xvz -C/usr/local --strip 1
