Just follow his tutorial and get it done http://vimeo.com/56881481 That said a simple application to do this is a killer app :) This is file encryption that does more with less What we need in a tech world is simple easy to use apps that are safe and secure to use a good philosophy in my opinion. @didn't know about Krytokit how is it for a newbie user?

It's good. Really easy to use imo. Make a public key, send it to the person, and then type a message and then encrypt it and send it. Or save someones key and easily decrypt their messages. It also doubles as a bitcoin wallet/price tracker/news stream/shopping directory. Not much to dislike about it. It's good, the only issue would be the trust factor but it's supported by some well known people in the community so it's probably ok.

I went to the link and watched the video for how it did a Bitcoin transaction and it looks pretty simple to use which is a good thing. It sort of reminded me of inputs when it did the beep noise, or Avira when it finds a virus and scares the crap out of me. Surfing then BLEEP why I switched to avast as an aside lol the virus detected had that human voice (I could have just changed the default sound but avira also had more stuff) Anyways cool stuff and ya your right you have to trust the people behind it and hope its not TF in disguise kid :) |
