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.
This is why I usually try to write in a formal, polite style. I'm often
guilty of disobeying my own rule on these online forums, and plead
guilty to boneheadedness. Mea culpa.
I am passionate about many topics, including unproductive and
de-motivating management, the need for clarity in writing, and our
combined need to stop apologizing for technical writing. I hope that
I'll be able to maintain that passion without flaming anyone!

Hey techwr-lrs...here's an article from our local news outlet (Phoenix).
I thought you might find it interesting not only because we are
professional communicators and pride ourselves in clarity of expression,
but also because we often see frequent mis-interpretation of posts to
this forum.
