What it does
Ongoing: If this is your only card here, +3 Power to this card.
Ongoing is always on while the card is in play.
It costs 6 RAM to play and brings 13 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.
Creators cards are strongest on their own, and some only get going late.
The site, in 2004
Liberated Syndication, a service that stores podcasters' audio and video files and builds the RSS feeds that deliver them to listeners.
It began hosting in November 2004 as the first podcast hosting company, over six months before iTunes supported podcasts. Early clients included NPR and Marc Maron; it later delivered over 4 billion downloads of the Joe Rogan podcast.
In 2004: Started in November by Webmayhem, a Pittsburgh web-design firm founded by University of Pittsburgh students, on cheap servers linked together.
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.
Pixel tribute by dub3, after the 2004 page.
In the game, this pixel page loads the way it did in 2004, then plays a short scene. Want Libsyn in your deck? Make a free account and open some packs, or try a match first. No sign-up needed for that.
