Description

The sentence on the home page toward the bottom:

```
We're not reinventing any cryptography here - the goal is a simple way to look up and trust keys, based on known public identities.
```

Does a good job of explaining what keybase is. I didn't really know what the site was for until I read that. Maybe make that a bit more obvious & prominent on the page.

Cool service though, just took me a bit to get why I'd need it and what it does.
