The Keybase filesystem
Keybase just announced the Keybase filesystem, #1 on Hacker News! Some testers are getting special binaries that include KBFS functionality. If you're interested, read more.
And what about the website?
Keybase.io is also a Keybase client, however certain crypto actions are limited.

Welcome to Keybase
Keybase is a directory of people and public keys.
In a nutshell, Keybase lets you get someone's public key and trust it, without meeting in person or trusting a "web of trust."
