What it does

When you play a card here: +1 Power to this card.

When you play a card here fires each time you add another card to that lane.

It costs 2 RAM to play and brings 3 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 1995

An American social network for bringing high school alumni together, founded in Bellevue, Washington, by Randy Conrads in 1995.

It holds an archive of over 470,000 digitised high school yearbooks, and members can buy reprints. It says it has over 90 million members.

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.
