Cannot find module 'now' - nowjs and nodejs

Question

I installed nodejs in my home folder (/home/myname/). No problems so far. Then I installed nowjs and there was one warning:

Checking for node path: not found

Now when I try this example: http://nowjs.com/doc/example I get the error:

node.js:201
        throw e; // process.nextTick error, or 'error' event on first tick
              ^ Error: Cannot find module 'now'
    at Function._resolveFilename (module.js:334:11)
    at Function._load (module.js:279:25)
    at Module.require (module.js:357:17)
    at require (module.js:368:17)

    at Module.load (module.js:351:31)
    at Function._load (module.js:310:12)
    at Array.0 (module.js:470:10)

Something with the paths is wrong I guess...anyone knows how to fix this? Thanks

try this before :

npm config set global true && \
     echo 'export NODE_PATH="'$(npm root -g)'"' >> ~/.bashrc && \
     . ~/.bashrc
