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.
How can there be two so divergent views about this application? Some say
you can't call yourself a TW without living in Frame, and others, from
students to already employed TWs, either haven't heard of it before or
don't personally know anyone who uses it.
A lack of training availability, a lack of requirements for Frame
proficiency for jobs, and a lack information, have all been addressed by
list readers. If Frame is _it_ for technical writing, how could these
conditions exist?
Perhaps it's a regional thing? Are there more people using Frame in,
say, California than there are in say the midwest or Canada?
Where are you? Do you and your colleagues use Frame as the main tool?
