What it does

On reveal: +2 Power to a random card in your hand.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 1 RAM to play and brings 1 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 2001

An internet search engine begun in 2000 by Professor Apostolos Gerasoulis and colleagues at Rutgers University.

The name is Scottish Gaelic for "expert". It grew out of the 1998 DiscoWeb project, and Ask Jeeves bought it in September 2001. In 2002 Nielsen//NetRatings ranked it the third most popular search engine in the US.

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.
