Thomas Edwards has built an interactive flirting tool. “Touch” enables two people to touch each other across the internet, ET-style:

As an added bonus, Thomas is looking for a few good dorkbotters:

I am looking for someone on the West Coast of the US to volunteer to take part in a “transcontinental touch”.

“Touch” will be demonstrated at the next Dorkbot DC meeting (Monday, Sept. 10, 2007 7-9PM ET). I am seeking a volunteer on the West coast (or at least 2,500 miles away) to demonstrate on the other side. The volunteer will need to connect their side of “Touch” to wired Ethernet Internet, and preferably be able to also take part in (free) videoconferencing via SightSpeed or at least get on UStream.tv so the Washington side can see what is going on at your side. “Touch” is a fairly plug-and-play if you have a reasonably standard Internet connection and DHCPed IP addresses.

Contact this space if you are interested!
