What is Namecoin

Namecoin is a decentralized generic name/value datastore system based on Bitcoin technology (a decentralized cryptocurrency). The Namecoin network is created by the open source Namecoin software ("client"). It allows you to:

Securely register and transfer arbitrary names (censorship resistant) 
Attach values to the names (currently up to 1023 bytes) 
Transact Namecoins, the digital currency NMC 


As Bitcoin frees money Namecoin frees information access, e.g.: 
domain name system (Dot-Bit, see below) 
website authentication and data encryption (Namecoin TLS) 
user login (NameID) 
personal IDs containing all kinds of addresses, encryption keys, links 
potentially stocks, bonds, tickets, file signatures, ...
