Hey everyone! I have 21 keybase invites that I don't really have a use for. If anyone wants one, reply and I'll send you a DM.

So what is that? From the title alone I thought we were making a keyboard database with switches, quality, etc...
"So, What’s This Keybase Thing Then?
Founded by Max Krohn and Chris Coyne, who previously founded OK Cupid, Sparknotes and TheSpark, it’s presently only available in a private alpha. It markets itself as “a public directory of publicly auditable public keys. All paired, for convenience, with unique usernames”.
Built upon the venerable and battle-hardened GNU Privacy Guard, Keybase allows users to easily encrypt, decrypt and share messages within a tried-and-tested encryption standard. Furthermore, all public keys are tied to user accounts on the Keybase websites, in addition to Twitter and Github accounts.
Messages can be encrypted through a relatively intuitive Node.js based command-line application, or through the Keybase website."
Ps: on mobile so don't know if block quoting went alright.
Basically GPG / PGP for the masses. Makes using PGP much easier, and they're developing a few other of their own tools that is still based around it. For example, you can find me at https://keybase.io/cws
Heh, thanks for the reminder. Forgot I had signed up freaking ages ago.
Can you decide not to make all your devices public on the site?
You're not really making them public, but yes, you can decide not to add them.
