We are a DApp team in China, and it took us about 3 months to build KeyMesh, an Ethereum address book with private chat. We are super excited to share it with the Ethereum community!

KeyMesh is a decentralized address book for Ethereum accounts. You can use it to prove on Twitter that you own an account, and search for other accounts using Twitter names.

Using KeyMesh you can send money and messages to verified Twitter names, instead of long addresses.

And we did it without funding or ICO

------------------------------------------

You'll need desktop Chrome & MetaMask. Mobile is not yet supported, sorry.

The BETA runs on the Rinkeby network, and you can get free test ether from the faucet.


Thank you for the encouragement : )

Please don't hesitate to contact me if you run into problems with the content.


The first lesson is here http://fork2.com/ios/fortuna/


I can't take a newsflash seriously if they don't even link to the original study.

Are the socioeconomic levels of these higher IQ individuals controlled? How exactly did they select their sample for the study? And they mentioned marijuana, cocaine, heroine in one breath, as though those are the same drug. Surely different population groups use those drugs to different extents.


Also, "A high IQ is defined as a score between 107 and 158."

Is that standard? Isn't that about 1/2 to 4 standard deviations on IQ charts? Seems like a wide range.


off topic. I am the author. I am wondering if this submission had been flagged. Fogscreek's post about Trello http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3001173 has 7 votes, but it's on the front page ranked 19.

This was submitted at roughly the same time, and has 13 votes. But it's ranked ~50 on the second page.

I just want to know if I unknowingly violated some rules. I'd want to avoid that next time.

Anybody knows?


I've wondered about that too. I wonder if an upvote from a user who has high karma has higher weight than an upvote from a person who has low karma?


it also happened to my previous submission for getfaceoff.com.


Right now everything loading from the facebook domains (facebook.com, facebook.net, fbcdn, connect.facebook.com) are blocked. Then the extension allows the like button to work when a user explicitly requests for it.

You are right that only the like button among the Facebook widgets is implemented. This is just a very start, we can progressively add more features.


Not only is it proven, it is also tested.

I am not a genius like Knuth, who only needs to prove things.


MVP. Sorry to disappoint :p


MVP stands for Minimum Viable Product. There has to actually be something for it to be a Product.


Maybe I misused the term minimum "viable" product. But isn't it a standard practice for lean startups to run something like a potemkin village to test if there's interest?

I don't see why I shouldn't do the same with an open source project.


You would violate terms of agreement. But if it's a Chrome extension, what can they do?



ah. I stand corrected.
