Keybase.io Invites
I have 2 Keybase.io invitations to give out. What is Keybase?:
Keybase will be a public directory of publicly auditable public keys. All paired, for convenience, with unique usernames. (https://keybase.io/)
It is quite awesome. Works with the gpg keys you already have and also lets you do browser encryption if you whish so. You can upload a private key, but since it is protected with a passphrase it should be secure.
Please post why you want a keybase invite. You should be active on there and at least validate your accounts, and sign / track some other people.

I would go for a Keybase invite. It sounds like an interesting service.
Seems cool I just don't think I would use it unless it was integrated with my social websites as a plugin or something.. and then I don't even know. Most of my friends don't know what a public key is.
@Gunter send me a PM with your email
I'd like to use a service like this if a spots open.
Yes please, if you can! ^.^
Pm sent. Nice graphics btw
I dont know why but those images on website remind me crypto textbooks back in college.. Well played.
I've got a bunch of invites as well to give away, PM me if you want em.
Looks interesting!
@tvjames PMed
@tvjames PM'd
@david_p PM me if you want one. You were second after @Gunter.
I wouldn't hate an invite to this, it sounds great. PM'd the second person offering.

Grabbed a 3-letter one which is relatively decent! Feel free to follow me, anyone that managed to grab an account or already has one! ^.^
@0xdragon
That being said, apparently you'll soon be able to get "[email protected]" for automatic encryption/decryption. I'm not sure how I feel about that feature frankly.
Oooh, that's very cool. And thanks for the message!
Did you manage to secure an invite?
Not yet I haven't. I PM'd tvjames ; but not sure if he still has any.
Thanks @tvjames !
I got in and set up my profile, got a REALLY short one:

Finally, a test of the signing feature:
Please track me .
I've been granted some invites now if anyone still needs.
@GoodHosting: Can I grab one please? Thx.
I'll ask for one as well if you don't mind? thanks!
Sure, just PM me your E-Mail. [ Invite gets sent to E-Mail by their site. ]

You should sign and verify the DNS of your domain as well as a file [ you can do both, just click "verify another web identity" and choose DNS as your option this time, then continue as you normally would.
It shows double proof of ownership when queried.
Thanks, just set myself up and "tracked" you
Awesome thanks. Tracking means quite a bit in the way they have set it up, as it is what proves your identity as belonging to you [ or, at least, it proves that what is available at the keybase archive has been vetted by the people who have "Tracked" you. ]
If you have one in the future, feel free to let me know :-)
Reached out to you on Skype about it.
If anyone has an invite, I'd appreciate it.
I would like to have an invite if anyone is generous..
I'm all out for now, my last one went to @mpkossen .
I'll ask Chris if I can't get a few more.
Not sure why I can't make invites, but when I have one I'll send it out.
