What it does

On reveal: Enemy cards here lose all the Power they've gained, and their Ongoing effects stop.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

Silence switches off a lane's Ongoing effects.

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.

Tech cards bend the rules: more RAM, cheaper cards and patches that weaken the other side.

The site, in 2004

Google's free web email service, opened in 2004 with a full gigabyte of storage, far more than rivals then offered.

Built around search, labels and threaded conversations instead of folders, and an early showcase for Ajax. It launched on 1 April 2004 and is now the biggest email service in the world, with 1.8 billion users.

In 2004: Launched as a beta on 1 April, with 1 GB of space.

Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.

Megacorps: The giants. You've used most of them today.
