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 get the digest, and it's like walking into a room full of people
talking. I can listen in on particular conversations that interests me
(Please use accurate subject lines!), but I can't always keep track of
what the context is.
I imagine walking back into a conversation after being gone for a while,
and saying something that had already been thoroughly discussed just
previous to my entering. Besides being awkward, and unhelpful, I think it
shows a lack of respect for other people's time.
I just don't have to time to keep up with the conversation enough to feel
like I can productively add to it.
Also, it's amazing how if I carefully consider the value of what I have to
say, and why I'm saying it, how little I have to add to day-old threads.
