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.
Oh, and ethics? Do business ethics exist any more? I
thought if you made $$$ and avoided jail--or managed
to keep all your vacation homes, toys, and only got a
short sentence--all was right with the world.
As for the STC, I think it is required that such a
significant organization try to define the business
ethics of its members, although like many articles, I
find the ethics ones to be . . . academic.
Cheers,
Sean
