What it does
Each round end: If you're winning here, +2 Power to this card.
Each round end fires as every round finishes.
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.
Commerce cards grow every round and make your opponent pay more to play.
The site, in 2002
A website for booking hotel rooms around the world, now owned by Expedia Group.
The company began in Dallas in 1991 as a phone service, Hotel Reservations Network. In 2002 it bought the Hotels.com domain, for about $11 million, took that name and began booking rooms online.
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.
