What it does
On reveal: If played in round 5 or later, +3 Power to this card.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 4 RAM to play and brings 6 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.
Social cards lift the cards around them, here and in the other lanes.
The site, in 1998
A recipe-sharing community where members post their own dishes, rate and review others' and search by ingredient, occasion or cooking method.
University of Washington archaeology students started it in 1997 after failing to find a cookie recipe online. It began as CookieRecipe.com and grew to 38 single-dish domains before they were merged into Allrecipes.com; Meredith paid $175 million for it in 2012.
Boom era, 1995 to 1998. Netscape, frames, hit counters and animated envelopes. Everyone had a homepage, and every homepage was under construction.
The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
