What it does

When you play a card here: +1 Power to your other cards here.

When you play a card here fires each time you add another card to that lane.

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.

Social cards lift the cards around them, here and in the other lanes.

The site, in 1999

A blogging and diary site where you added other users as friends and read their entries together on one page.

The friends list and customisable journals made it feel like a neighbourhood. Six Apart bought it in 2005 and sold it to the Russian company SUP Media in 2007. Its servers moved to Russia in 2016.

In 1999: Launched on 15 April by Brad Fitzpatrick, who wanted to keep his high school friends up to date.

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.

Under Construction: Homepages, fan shrines and the GIFs that decorated them.
