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.
I hope you will consider the tool that my company produces, HyperText
Studio. It is a wysiwyg tool that can create websites, help files, browser
based help and printed documents.
It is already very inexpensive but to celebrate 15 years of development of
this product, we have a special in November where the Professional Edition
(normally $349US) will be available for just $99US!
