Skin in the Game

Even though yesterday's post was about real (dead/used) skin that isn't the case today. Today's offering is even weirder,an artificial skin for cell phones has been invented to make the phone an even closer extension of its user. The "skin" is made with the same type of process used in robotics skin and is being applied to smartphones,touchpads and smartwatches. If the very thought doesn't make you shiver how about this? The ways you can interact with your phone's skin include slapping,pinching and tickling. I can almost understand the slapping being helpful on some level,but I'm totally lost on why anyone would want or need to tickle their phone.
