What it does
On reveal: If you already have another Search card here, +3 Power to this card.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 5 RAM to play and brings 8 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.
Search cards grow with the friends in their lane, and some draw you cards.
The site, in 2010
China's biggest search engine, started in Beijing by Robin Li and Eric Xu.
Its name means 'hundred times'. Li had built RankDex, a search tool that ranked sites by their links, in 1996. In December 2007 Baidu became the first Chinese company in the NASDAQ-100 index.
Modern era, 2009 on. Phones, feeds and cookie banners. The web got fast, flat and very sure about notifications.
Megacorps: The giants. You've used most of them today.
