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.
Practicing just-in-time documentation reduces my workload
substantially. I can't count how many times something I was keeping my
eye on ended up being dropped or otherwise revised so that no docs
were needed.
Flip side, peculative, preemptive documentation of work in progress
often leads to errors. A programmer changes something, the writer
doesn't find out, the doc is wrong.
