Managed installation

Use pip or setuptools to manage your installation (you might need to run sudo first):

pip (preferred):

$ pip install --upgrade google-api-python-client

Setuptools: Use the easy_install tool included in the setuptools package:
```
$ easy_install --upgrade google-api-python-client
```

Manual installation
