What it does
On reveal: If played in round 5 or later, +3 Power to this card.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 5 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.
Tech cards bend the rules: more RAM, cheaper cards and patches that weaken the other side.
The site, in 2006
A people-search website that gathers data from online and offline sources into a profile for each name.
Four Stanford graduates launched it on 5 November 2006 as a social media aggregator, before it turned to people search. It gave its name to Spokeo v. Robins, a 2016 US Supreme Court case about suing over wrong data without showing concrete harm.
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.
