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 2008
A reverse image search engine from Idée, Inc. of Toronto: you upload a picture and it finds where else it appears online.
It matches a digital fingerprint of the image, so it can find heavily edited copies, though not merely similar pictures. It has been described as the first web image search to work on the image itself rather than keywords.
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.
