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.

The new tech writer looked nervous.
"What's SnagIt?" he wanted to know.
Dan answered, "SnagIt? It's your best friend -
if you want to be a writing pro."
"With SnagIt you capture what you want.
You can edit it and send it out.
And SnagIt's got a new release -
you won't know how you did without.
Printer Capture - print from any program
straight to SnagIt's printer - why not?
You can then use all of SnagIt's features
to change the image you've got.
Or display your capture as thumbnails
linked to images that are whole.
With SnagIt's Web Page Creator,
you possess that level of control.
Or if you want to see your capture
plastered across your desktop screen,
use the new Wallpaper Output
to spruce up your personal machine.
Want to capture a scrolling window?
Want the frame to come along too?
In XP the Extended Window Capture
Makes your screen capture dreams come true.
And finally, in SnagIt they've packed in
one more little capturing perk.
You can now use the keyboard keys instead
of the mouse to do all your work."
Dan clapped his protégé on the back.
He said, "You seem pretty bright.
You'll get far by taking my advice -
try SnagIt - you'll see I'm right."
