Key signing party
In cryptography, a key signing party is an event at which people present their PGP-compatible keys to others in person, who, if they are confident the key actually belongs to the person who claims it, digitally signs the PGP certificate containing that public key and the person's name, etc. This is one way to strengthen the web of trust.
