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.

Over here in Israel, the idea of earning an American
salary over the Internet is a widespread daydream of
technical writers. But when the topic of long-distance
telecommuting has come up in the past on techwr-l, it's
turned out that the successful offsite writer started out
not by building the first big profitable offsite relationship
from scratch, but by building it onsite first. I know of no
exceptions here in Israel, nor elsewhere. But I'd be happy
to hear that (like "The Immortal Story," if you ever saw
that Orson Welles film) it actually did happen once to
some lucky person.
