Require the library:

Set a provider (QtProvider, WebSocketProvider, HttpRpcProvider)
var web3.setProvider(new web3.providers.WebSocketProvider('ws://localhost:40404/eth'));
There you go, now you can use it:
web3.eth.coinbase.then(function(result){
console.log(result);
return web3.eth.balanceAt(result);
}).then(function(balance){
console.log(web3.toDecimal(balance));
}).catch(function(err){
console.log(err);
