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 agree, but if it helps, it wasn't a tech writer who decided there would
be notes and tips and they would be different. It is a tech writer who is
saying, we only need one of those and forget about the technical difference
that is artificially defined for each.
My hope is to find a real study to present to back up my experience,
education, and training. (Though, this is a minor issue I can live with).
Cheers,
Sean
