What it does

No ability.

No ability, just Power. Sometimes that's all a homepage needs.

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.

Search cards grow with the friends in their lane, and some draw you cards.

The site, in 2006

An online dictionary of computer terms in five languages: Esperanto, English, Dutch, German and French.

The youth organisation E@I built it to line up translations from different dictionaries and discourage sloppy borrowing from American English. The name is Esperanto for a collection of computer terms.

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

The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
