What it does
On reveal: +2 Power to your cards in other lanes.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 5 RAM to play and brings 2 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 2002
An online database of films, television and games, with cast and crew, plot summaries, trivia, ratings and reviews.
It grew from a hobby list kept by Col Needham, shared on the Usenet group rec.arts.movies from 1990, and reached the web in 1993. Amazon bought it in 1998 in a $55 million deal that included two other companies.
In 2002: Four years into Amazon ownership, a deal that let it start paying its shareholders salaries for their work.
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.
Megacorps: The giants. You've used most of them today.
