What it does

On reveal: Draw 1 card.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 6 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 2001

A Brazilian news site covering the book publishing trade, begun as a daily email newsletter.

Carlo Carrenho started it on 20 July 2001. By 2021 its newsletter reached more than 13,000 readers a day, and in 2025 it added a printed magazine.

Dot-com era, 1999 to 2002. Glossy buttons, big money and a bug called Y2K. Some of these companies were worth billions for about a fortnight.

The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
