1. A computing system, comprising:
- a processor;
a network; and
a user interface communicatively coupled through the network to the processor, wherein the user interface includes a pair of wearable items, including a first and a second wearable item, wherein the first wearable item includes a command interface and a proximity detector, wherein the proximity detector detects when the pair of wearable items are in close proximity;
wherein the command interface is activated when the pair of wearable items are placed in close proximity; and
wherein the command interface, when activated, receives commands and transfers the commands to the processor.
