While we may need to wait for the technology allowing the tactile communication just by wearing special clothes (and I don't mean the legendary Urban Porcupine jackets!), some of the areas where it could already work today include:

* beds/mattraces
* laptops

Beds could have the following feature: as your friend lies down on her bed, your bed would try to acquire the same shape as the remote one. As you lie down too, the surface would sink even deeper, so as to reflect the product of the forces of both of your weights. This product would, of course, change, as you change positions while sleeping at night, allowing for some interesting perceptions, and perhaps even patterns of switching sides over night.

On laptops, there are places where we put the base of the palm. These places are almost always rest on the keyboards as we type. Instead of plain computer surface we could have an arrangement of pins like in pin art.
