How to update the current user (Accounts)

I'm using Accounts (accounts-hithub). Now this is working fine, but now I would like to update the current users.

I've tried things like

Accounts.update({_id: Meteor.user()._id}, {...});

Which gives an error, Accounts doesn't have a method update So I tried to create a users collection

Users = new Meteor.Collection('users');

This is also not allowed, it gives me the following error: 

Error: A method named '/users/insert' is already defined

So how do I update the current user ?

User details are in the Meteor.users collection. So you can edit user details using Meteor.users.update() (http://docs.meteor.com/#meteor_users).
