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.

Technically, "Florida-based" means that offices are in Canada,
"Floridian-based" that most of the staff are from Florida. :-)

You were all dressed up to play Gun for Hire
The rope you threw me was made of barbed wire
But put it there pal, put it there."
