Hi Rob,

Looks pretty good.  A few comments:

  a) Typo in second code block in section "Basic Usage | Making a
Connection":  s/"jdbc:jena:men:empty=true"/"jdbc:jena:mem:empty=true".
  Same error on drivers.html in the second code block of the
"Available Drivers | In-Memory" section.

  b) Would suggest changing the section titles under Basic Usage to
instead read: "Establishing a Connection", "Performing Queries", and
"Performing Updates".

  c) Suggest adding try/finally blocks for both the Query and Update examples.

  d) Suggest adding an example of transactions for TDB connections
(one that contains both read/update queries would be cool).
