What it does

On reveal: +2 Power to your other cards here.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 2 RAM to play and brings 2 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 2006

A free social bookmarking service, where people saved links to web pages and shared them.

Kai Tietjen started it in Germany, and it went online on 1 March 2006. It became one of Europe's largest free bookmarking services, with up to 250,000 visitors a day. The company ekaabo bought it in August 2012.

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.
