What it does
Ongoing: +2 Power to this card for each card you have here, up to +4.
Ongoing is always on while the card is in play.
It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 2 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 2002
The first wiki, a user-editable website started by the programmer Ward Cunningham so that programmers could swap ideas.
The name comes from the Wiki Wiki Shuttle bus at Honolulu airport, as wiki is Hawaiian for quick. Links were made by joining capitalised words. Vandals forced it read-only in December 2014.
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.
Pixel tribute by dub3, after the 2002 page.
In the game, this pixel page loads the way it did in 2002, then plays a short scene. Want WikiWikiWeb in your deck? Make a free account and open some packs, or try a match first. No sign-up needed for that.
