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.
We are defining some new style issues in our department. One that has us
evenly divided involves telling the reader to open a web page in a browser.
We have used both "open the XXX page in your browser" and "point your
browser to". Both usages have pros and cons but point is not a favourite
with some members of the department. Has anyone else been concerned with the
use of point and how was the issue resolved? Thank you from a first time
poster.
