What it does
No ability.
No ability, just Power. Sometimes that's all a homepage needs.
It costs 1 RAM to play and brings 2 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 2005
A UK directory of open access repositories, including academic ones, which can be searched by place, content and other measures.
Run by the University of Nottingham under the SHERPA services, with Lund University. By 2015 it and ROAR were regarded as the two leading open access directories worldwide. Its staff vet each entry.
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.
