TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I agree with you that a lot of what we write today will be irrelevant at
some future time. However, I have worked for organizations that really did
know what they were doing, and I have often known exactly what I was doing
and how I was doing it. While your experience may be common, it isn't
necessarily universal.
