From BluWiki

The history of The Computer Resource has been a long and challenging one.

April 2008 - May 2008: The EditThis.info era

TCR had its roots in the wiki hosting site editthis.info, taking cues from other wikis hosted by the same site. It started out being a small site that couldn't get off the ground quickly (mainly because of the site's 25MB size limit). In mid-May, EditThis.info briefly went down, and TCR relocated to ScribbleWiki, another hosting site. However, when EditThis.info came back up days later, administrator AMRDeuce declared that it was not enough for a probable large wiki and thus started the ScribbleWiki era.

May 2008 - October 2008: The ScribbleWiki era

After the initial crash of EditThis.info's servers, TCR relocated to ScribbleWiki. It then grew to an almost-100 page wiki. However, administrator AMRDeuce had not time for this site and was deprecated. AMR had some notable projects in progress at that site. However, in October 2008, the site shut down, and TCR was forced to relocate to another wiki hosting site. Wikia was considered, but was rejected as a suitable hosting site; thus, this started the BluWiki era.
