What it does
No ability.
No ability, just Power. Sometimes that's all a homepage needs.
It costs 4 RAM to play and brings 8 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 2008
A site of short, user-submitted stories about everyday bad luck, each one beginning "Today" and ending "FML".
The English version of France's Viedemerde.fr, it launched in January 2008. At its 2009 peak it drew more than 1.7 million hits a day, and a book of its stories came out that June.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
