About my experience as a Keybase user.

Me at Keybase

Keybase will be a public directory of publicly auditable public keys. All paired, for convenience, with unique usernames.

I’ve just signed up to Keybase alpha last 12th of June thanks to a private invitations. Thank you, Max & Chris!

I like Keybase, ‘cause:

It is a pretty good way to getting started Pretty Good Privacy
It is a service accessible to everyone, you don’t need to manage your own server.
It is open source, see Keybase organization on GitHub.
It has a Node client, I like it!

My identity

First of all, I created a public OpenPGP key.

Then I veryfied my GitHub identity with this gist proof.

That’s all by now, I will annotate here everything I will discover about this new world.
