Here's how they work:

“When you turn one on with a simple touch of your hand, its mate emits the same ambient glow, no matter where it is and who is on the other end: Parent or grandparent, niece or nephew, or long-distance significant other. Each person sets up their lamp via Wi-Fi, then reaches out and touches the lamp whenever they want to let their loved one know they’re thinking of them. With every touch, the lamp cycles through a rainbow of colors, one at a time. You can also assign each loved one a color so that when they tap their lamp, yours lights up with their special hue.”

Uncommon Goods offers two unique styles of the Long Distance Friendship Lamp: the classic style, available for $85,  and the mid-century style, available for $95 . (You can also buy them in sets of two, available for $170 and $190, respectively.)

Another option is this cool bracelet set , touch one and the other lights up and vibrates!
