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.
Yep, food is a great motivator. An extra touch: for any meeting that
directly concerns my department (well, me -- I *am* the department), I bake
something really chewy the night before. Everyone shows up because I offer
homemade goodies, but my comments have a better chance of being heard
because everyone is eating -- except me.
