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.
None of the tech writing I've done could be posted online, for proprietary
reasons.
If you've done some generic "how to program a VCR" doc as a college
project or something, then that might be good to post, but I'd imagine
most of us are in the same boat. Typically we don't own the docs we write.
For that matter, some of us probably are not completely within our bounds
even briefly showing hard copies of our work in interviews, but I thinks
it's sensible to be a little realistic/flexible in those situations, as
long as we don't leave the documents with prospective employer. YMMV.
