What it does
On reveal: +2 Power to the next card you play.
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.
Media cards broadcast Power to your other lanes.
The site, in 2005
A Stockholm video-on-demand service that streamed films through its own peer-to-peer system, called Vnet.
In Vnet, users streamed films to each other, but a central administrator decided who could watch which. The consumer service launched in 2009. The company went bankrupt in January 2018.
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.
