11. A computing system comprising:
a processor; and
a computer-readable hardware storage device having stored thereon computer-executable instructions that are structured such that, when the computer-executable instructions are executed by the processor, the computer-executable instructions cause the computing system to at least:
connect to a first smart wearable computing device having an LED light;
communicate with a second computing system connected to a second smart wearable computing device;
determine that a predetermined condition is satisfied based on communicating with the second computing system, including determining that the first smart wearable computing device and the second smart wearable computing device are associated with a same social identity; and
in response to determining that the predetermined condition is satisfied, cause the LED light of the first smart wearable computing device to light up.
