    Idea of the service is that one can create a ad-hoc urls and invite friends to chat. No need to register.

      Just realized I don't actually have to give my email address- Nice site
  • pmoorcraft 12y ago
    I was interested by the title but since there's no information in the actual website, I'm weary of giving my email address- What is this actually about?
    • tkoski 12y ago
      Yeah, it does not ask for any information at all. Just decide what you want your place to be called.
    • tkoski 12y ago
      I updated the front page text. Any better / clear?

    Idea: add SSL and client-side symmetric key cryptography, while not saving the passphrase anywhere.
    • tkoski 12y ago
      SSL is on the "short TODO list" (service still in proof of concept stage) so SSL should be implemented/enabled soon. I need to study more about symmetric key cryptography. Any good hints from where to learn about it the best.

        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Encryption_Standard http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Encryption_Standard It shouldn't be too hard to find a JS implementation. For instance: https://github.com/mdp/gibberish-aes https://github.com/mdp/gibberish-aes
