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.
As others have noted, you don't lose all power over presentation.....mostly.
You can do amazing things with HTML and CSS. I've posted this link before, but take a look at CSS Zen Garden (http://www.csszengarden.com/) for examples of what you can do with HTML and CSS.
To a lesser extent, I've begun doing the same type of thing on my personal site: http://www.seanhower.com. I've got three separate layouts for the exact same content that you can pick from. I'm planning on adding more later.
