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.
So, I'm fairly new to this listserv thing, but I have managed (after 100's
of messages) to figure out that HTH means Hope That Helps, and IMHO (a
really tough one) is In My Humble Opinion. But I don't have a clue about
HAT. I've worn a hood instead of a hat on occasion, but how does that help
one create online help?
Just some quick clarification: I find it helpful to know what's going on
under the hood, regardless of whether I use a HAT or not. I'm not
necessarily saying "don't use a HAT."
