What it does
On reveal: If an enemy card was revealed here earlier this round, +2 Power to this card.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
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.
Media cards broadcast Power to your other lanes.
The site, in 2009
A Google Labs news reader that let you flick through pictures of stories, like turning the pages of a magazine.
It launched in beta at the TechCrunch 50 conference in September 2009, after Larry Page asked why the web wasn't more like a magazine. Each image led to the story on the publisher's own site.
Modern era, 2009 on. Phones, feeds and cookie banners. The web got fast, flat and very sure about notifications.
The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
Pixel tribute by dub3, after the 2009 page.
