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.
I didn't bag anyone. If you will notice, I was careful to avoid
identifying the site in question, specifically so I could not be accused
of an ad hominem attack.
While I agree with the "pick two" quip, I don't think people who cannot
compose a well-formed English sentence on the first try should hire
themselves out as tech writers at any price.
