There should be a HN keysharing thread. FWIW, here is mine:

Why not simply paste the key into the about field of the personal properties page?

PavlovsCat · on July 6, 2013

Done! Not that I am really using it (yet?), but I'd love to play with it, especially the forum feature (reminds me of usenet clients, which I never really got to use because that was before my time) - so feel free to "add me" if you're a "casual" yourself, or even if you're super serious about it, but don't mind playful old me.

phreeza · on July 6, 2013

I added you. Add me too and we can start an HN channel.

PavlovsCat · on July 6, 2013

Cheers!

phreeza · on July 6, 2013

Done.

add you

kybernetikos · on July 6, 2013

I add my public key to my gravatar image. The page I made to do this is here http://kybernetikos.github.io/VisualSecrecy/

frugalfirbolg · on July 6, 2013

Thanks, I was just looking for something like this!

kybernetikos · on July 6, 2013

Obviously it's just a proof of concept, but I think the principle is good. Let me know if you use it.

mknits · on July 6, 2013

I've added you as a friend on Retroshare. Don't forget to approve me.

phreeza · on July 6, 2013

I think you need to send me your public key for that.

mknits · on July 9, 2013

Sorry. Here's mine:

kimlelly · on July 6, 2013

Exactly. Both sides must initially exchange their public key (called "certificate" in this case).

It's of course the exact same logic as with encrypted email ("public key encryption" or "asymmetric encryption").

kirubakaran · on July 6, 2013

It looks awesome but they don't seem to have an x64 build for Ubuntu :(

shacharz · on July 6, 2013

That's the nice thing about browser technology... alleviates the pains cross platform

kimlelly · on July 6, 2013

True. If you can present a browser-based solution with this feature set, no ads, no tracking, and source code available, I'm definitely sold.

shacharz · on July 6, 2013

That's what we aim for
