Introducing Keybase Chat
I would love to have a linux curses client for encrypted chat. Something that irssi can connect to, perhaps?

Even better would be an open protocol. Keybase would sit as the trusted key database (go figure), verifier of identities.

Something like irssi-otr?

That's great, but I also need a web client for friends who can't use irssi.

Can't they use pidgin/gtalk? Gtalk works with bitlbee/irssi-otr.

They can't install anything on their computer, so no pidgin. Is it possible to use the web interface with Gtalk without having your personal email open?

They have a command line API for the json messages that the chat uses.
