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 someone who started out working as an engineer and then moved
over into this field and who has always been more or less "technical,"
the two things that have always mystified me about marketing are
(1) how anybody could think that some of the screwy things marketing
people always want to say and do could possibly work to attract
customers, and (2) that so many of them seem to work.
