What it does

On reveal: Draw 1 card.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 5 RAM to play and brings 10 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 2006

A free online dictionary of sign languages, where searching a word or sentence shows the sign in the language you pick.

It works as a website and an app. Public institutions, public funding, partnerships and universities support the project.

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.
