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.
"By contrast, tech-writing has some basis in pure research, but this fact
is almost overwhelmed by practicality and the need to respond to the
market. Nor are most tech-writers familiar with the research. Even fewer
conduct independent research, or even feel obliged to keep up to date on
the latest studies."
It's not that tech writers do not have the desire to do these things, but we
don't have the time. No one pays me to conduct independent research.
I'm going to keep up to date on the latest studies, as soon as I have a
break at work ... :)
