On reveal: +2 Power to your cards in other lanes.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 3 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
The video-sharing site where anyone can upload a clip, now the second most visited website in the world after Google.
Its first video, 'Me at the zoo', was uploaded by co-founder Jawed Karim on 23 April 2005 and can still be watched. Google bought the site for $1.65 billion in 2006. By 2024 it had more than 2.7 billion monthly users.
In 2005: Founded in February by three former PayPal staff. The first video went up on 23 April, and by December it was getting 8 million views a day.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
Megacorps: The giants. You've used most of them today.
