Having extra senses is pretty cool.
I'm wearing a magnetic ring (a post on LW gave me the idea). It's fun, and I can take it off whenever I want to. Occasionally it comes in useful too; when I need to open up my computer I can put the little screws on my ring, and I can tell whether a pot will work on my induction hot plate.
This sounds like a much lower-commitment variant, but it doesn't seem like it would have close to the same sensitivity.
Yes, it's not really like having an extra sense.
