What it does
On reveal: +1 Power to your cards in other lanes.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 6 RAM to play and brings 9 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.
Media cards broadcast Power to your other lanes.
The site, in 2004
A Linux news and hardware site founded in June 2004 and run by Michael Larabel.
It began with hardware reviews and moved towards Linux benchmarking, adding forums in 2006. The free Phoronix Test Suite, made by Larabel and Matthew Tippett, first appeared in June 2008.
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.
