What it does

On reveal: A random card in your hand costs 1 less.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 5 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 2006

An online file converter: upload a document, image, video or audio file, or give a web address, and download it in another format.

Brothers Mike and Chris Whyley made it in England in 2006. It handles over 1,200 conversion types and has converted more than 510 million files for people in 245 countries.

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.
