### Register on ToxMe
An integration for ToxMe service providers that allows you to create a simple
alias for your Tox ID that will look like `user@example.com`. A default service
provider (toxme.io) is already listed, and you can add your own.
* __Username:__ This will be used as an alias for your Tox ID.
* __Biography:__ Optional. If you want, you can write something here.
* __Server:__ Service address where your alias will be registered.
Note that by default aliases are public, but you can check the option to make a
private one, but given that it would be stored on a server that you don't
control, it's not actually private. At best you have a promise of privacy from
the owner of the server. For 100% privacy use Tox IDs.
After registration, you can give your new alias, e.g. `user@example.com` to
your friends instead of the long Tox ID.
