What it does

No ability.

No ability, just Power. Sometimes that's all a homepage needs.

It costs 6 RAM to play and brings 13 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Media cards broadcast Power to your other lanes.

The site, in 1999

A Swiss international news site in ten languages, based in Bern and part of the Swiss Broadcasting Corporation.

It reports on Switzerland for the outside world, with priority given to politics, the economy, the arts, science, education and direct democracy.

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.
