What it does

On reveal: If played in round 5 or later, +3 Power to this card.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 5 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 2008

A collaborative encyclopedia of the history and culture of the US state of Oregon.

Portland State University and the Oregon Historical Society launched it online in February 2008, aiming for about 3,000 articles. By June 2020 it had more than 1,750. The historical society became its home in 2013.

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.
