What it does

Ongoing: +1 Power to your other cards here.

Ongoing is always on while the card is in play.

It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 5 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 2002

An American website on design, technology, science and science fiction, begun in 2002 as a blog in the Gawker Media network.

Peter Rojas first edited it, and later launched the rival blog Engadget. After Gawker's bankruptcy it was bought by Univision in 2016, then G/O Media in 2019 and Keleops Media in 2024.

In 2002: Launched this year, edited at first by Peter Rojas.

Dot-com era, 1999 to 2002. Glossy buttons, big money and a bug called Y2K. Some of these companies were worth billions for about a fortnight.

The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
