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.
The recent discussions of Massachusetts suggest a really neat pastime we
might engage in here. Why don't we think of all the parts of the world we
might make derogatory remarks about and post messages about them. Use a
separate message for each, so folks can respond more easily.
Then think of all the parts of the world you'd like to say something nice
about. Post a separate message for each.
Finally, read all the traffic, and post a reply to anything you don't
completely agree with.
To keep it relevant, restrict your comments to parts of the world where at
least two technical writers reside.
