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.
If anything reduces technical writing to a commodity it's not the tools we
use, but the attempts by management to reduce this work to something they
can order by the day like potatoes or coal. The real earmark of
commoditization of writing is the concept of pages per day - trying to
reduce writing to some kind of tangible product that can be quantified in
terms of items per man hour as if writing was just a different type of
assembly/delivery stream.
