What it does
On reveal: If you already have another Search card here, +3 Power to this card.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
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.
Search cards grow with the friends in their lane, and some draw you cards.
The site, in 1996
An online database of integer sequences, created by Neil Sloane at AT&T Labs and used by professional and amateur mathematicians.
Sloane began collecting sequences as a graduate student in 1964 and published them in books first. It now has over 400,000 sequences, growing by around 30 a day, and entries can be graphed or played as music.
In 1996: Became a website this year, after starting as an email service in August 1994.
Boom era, 1995 to 1998. Netscape, frames, hit counters and animated envelopes. Everyone had a homepage, and every homepage was under construction.
The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
