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.
Depending on what stage the UI design is at, I use a myriad of design tools.
At the initial stage, when we are not quite ready even for wire-frame
models, I use colored pencils ("pencil crayons" for my fellow Canadians) and
paper.
I enjoy using Vision for the wireframes, but I tend to move on to Visual
Basic and DreamWeaver when we start fleshing out the actual UI before
running fields tests and user experience studies.
