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 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.
Tech cards bend the rules: more RAM, cheaper cards and patches that weaken the other side.
The site, in 2000
A click-to-donate site, launched in May 2000, that uses advertising revenue to protect rainforest land.
The money has gone to conserve land in Ecuador, Mexico, Peru and Paraguay, and old-growth forest in Washington state. Tim Kunin and Greg Hesterberg own it through their for-profit company CharityUSA.com.
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.
