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.
Last week, I asked for input for a Vancouver area market report.
I've received all sorts of replies, and I'll be summarizing them as soon
as
I finish my current moonlighting project later this week.
Meanwhile, a thought struck me:
If we could get some volunteers to write brief bi-monthly summaries of
conditions in their areas, then the results might be a real benefit to
list subscribers. They might even be worth posting on the list web-site,
if Eric and Deborah are interested.
Any volunteers? I'll gladly help to organize, as well as doing the BC
report.

All of a midsummer's morn,
Surely we sing of no little thing,
In Oak and Ash and Thorn!"
