What it does
No ability.
No ability, just Power. Sometimes that's all a homepage needs.
It costs 2 RAM to play and brings 4 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 2011
A site that found people tweeting in indigenous and minority languages and listed them by language.
Kevin Scannell, a computational linguist at Saint Louis University, founded it in March 2011 so speakers could find one another. Each language page showed who was tweeting, with follower counts and trending topics.
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.
