What it does
When you play a card here: +1 Power to this card.
When you play a card here fires each time you add another card to that lane.
It costs 1 RAM to play and brings 1 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 2007
A portal for sharing open-source and Creative Commons content, with a store for it, code hosting and personal cloud services.
It began in 2007 as an umbrella for KDE-Look.org, GNOME-Look.org and other theme and app sites that Frank Karlitschek had been launching since 2001. He sold the network to Blue Systems in January 2016.
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.
