What it does

On reveal: +1 Power to your other cards here.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 5 RAM to play and brings 9 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 2000

A social cataloguing site for music, where members rate albums out of five stars, review them and build lists.

Ratings are pooled into community charts, and the site has been tied to the online rise of some artists and albums. It added films in May 2009.

In 2000: Hossein Sharifi founded it on 24 December 2000.

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.
