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.

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 second this one, also. I have a whole 2" binder on my desk of things I've
printed from the discussions on this page in the last 2 months. I've used
it many times & so have others in our IT Operations department. They come
to me for suggestions & I pull the page from the binder & give them a copy.
I wouldn't let a little pettiness drive you off!! As Juley says, delete
anything you don't want. There's too much worth keeping to throw the
resource away!

some members wrote me to say give it another try, you really can get some
great
information here. They also reminded me that there is a delete key and that
I
don't have to read all the posts that come through. They were right. I can
delete (and do) a lot of the posts but I've needed help on several occasions
and
these folks have never failed me. They are a wonderful resource and I'd be
lost
without them.
