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.
Anyone who's been on techwr-l has undoubtedly heard many good things about
WebWorks publisher for FrameMaker. I'm skeptical about the whole concept of
single-sourcing without using a database and a rigorously disciplined
approach to writing the text, but that's another story; WWP for Frame seems
to be a godsend to those who use it.
Those of us who use Word may be interested to know that WebWorks has now
come out with a version that works with Word: http://www.webworks.com/products/wwpp_w/default.aspx
(Incidentally, spotted the announcement for this product this in Intercom,
the STC magazine. Another benefit of membership! <G>)
Anyone had a chance to use WWP for Word yet, whether as a beta tester or in
your regular production work? Not something we're going to use here in the
immediate future, but it does sound like something I'll want to keep an eye
on in the longer term.
