What it does
Each round end: +1 Power to this card.
Each round end fires as every round finishes.
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.
Commerce cards grow every round and make your opponent pay more to play.
The site, in 2006
A website and toolbar with a Stumble button that opened a random page or video chosen to match your interests.
Garrett Camp and three others started it in 2001 while Camp was at the University of Calgary. eBay paid over $75 million for it in 2007. It shut down in June 2018.
In 2006: Moved into a San Francisco office in February on new investment, and launched StumbleVideo in December.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
Dead Links: Gone, but not forgotten. Mostly forgotten.
