WebFist is a sort of community fallback service for WebFinger requests -- if your email provider doesn't support WebFinger (e.g. gmail.com or yahoo.com email addresses), you can just email [email protected] with a link to your JRD and WebFist will give the client a delegated link to the person's JRD. They prove the person's intent using email DKIM signatures.

Here's my example:

http://webfist.org/.well-known/webfinger?resource=acct%3Akonklone%40gmail.com

Oddly enough though, WebFist itself doesn't support HTTPS. This is why client.webfinger.net's WebFist fallback is currently broken.
