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 just finished a project where the company went from cubicles to open
office concept. There were six of us to a table with sound absorbing
dividers. They gave us all headsets for conference calls. I was directly
below the air conditioning duct with its white noise, so I didn't hear very
many conversations. However, at 6 O'clock, when the air conditioning ceased,
I could hear conversations that were 20 to 30 feet away.

Subject: Open Office Layout Survey
Just noticed that there's a survey about working in an Open Office layout on
the Techwr-L site. There are only 55 votes. Are there really only 55 people
on this list that have an opinion about an Open Office layout?!?
