Don't forget Open Source software. There's tons of stuff out there that
desperately needs new or better documentation. So, it's fairly easy to
find an interesting app and document it for varying audiences. Also,
TECHWR-L has a section for Open Source articles: http://www.raycomm.com/techwhirl/magazine/technical/opensourcehomepage.html
So, yeah, there is always a way to build a portfolio.

Thanks! I hadn't really thought much about this aspect, but I'll
definitely keep it in mind!
