Birocapedia was started by Harry Netzer in December, 2007 and put on the world wide web on April 21, 2008. It is hosted on just a Dell home computer with some special software installed. You may have noticed that this site looks a lot like Wikipedia. That's because this site was made with the same software that Wikipedia was made with. That software, called MediaWiki, is free and can be found at http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki. That software creates a wiki site which means anyone can edit just about anything. That means that it is very easy to edit articles but it is also easy to vandalize them.
