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.
For the facts on Section 508 and how it affects web site (and other)

"Questions and Answers About the U.S. Disability Standards for Web Sites,"
http://www.gigalaw.com/articles/2001/isenberg-2001-06b-p1.html (In which I
wrote: "The new federal standards require, among other things, that the web
sites of federal agencies be made accessible to people with physical
disabilities. The standards were developed in response to the U.S.
Rehabilitation Act of 1998, a law that applies to all federal agencies when
they develop, procure, maintain or use certain kinds of technology,
including computers, software and electronic office equipment.")
