Institutions cards protect your side, and come back strong when you're losing.
The site, in 2007
The Notable Names Database, an online collection of biographies of more than 40,000 people, with a note of who they knew.
It went online in August 2002. Soylent Communications, which also hosted Rotten.com, ran it. Each entry gives a summary, a short life story and, if relevant, the date and cause of death. A visual Mapper of connections followed in May 2008.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
The Establishment: Governments, universities, libraries and archives. Very official.
