What it does
On reveal: +2 Power to the next card you play.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 2 RAM to play and brings 3 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 2003
A searchable online database of animated films, television shows and shorts, with voice actors, producers, plot summaries and user reviews.
Dave Koch began it in 1997 as a list of Disney features on his own computer. It went online in 1998, became a nonprofit in 2003 and held 100,000 titles by 2009. The site went offline in January 2024.
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.
