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.

> Reviews by SMEs can tell you "Oh, you can do this, this, and this too."
And reviews by QA can tell you "Oh, no one would ever want to do it
that way." and "But when you do this you need to keep in mind..."
And reviews by Tech Support will tell you "If you write it like this
we're going to be slammed with calls. Give them the easiest way - this
way - and provide more info as needed for more advanced users."
It really helps to get a wide variety of reviewers because no one
person or role will hit all important issues in the document. In fact,
you'll never hit all issues, as someone will always have a beef about
something, but do broaden your review base to catch all the glaring
issues.
