What it does

Ongoing: If this is your only card here, +4 Power to this card.

Ongoing is always on while the card is in play.

It costs 4 RAM to play and brings 7 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 2001

Weblog publishing software from Six Apart that bloggers installed on their own servers to run one or more blogs.

Ben Trott wrote it so his wife Mena could run her weblog, and version 1.0 came out on 8 October 2001. Its TrackBack feature spread to other blog systems, and their company, Six Apart, bought LiveJournal in 2005.

In 2001: Announced on 3 September and released as version 1.0 on 8 October, when it was downloaded over 100 times in the first hour.

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.
