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.
Like Scotty, my "recreational" reading is more often than not from my "TC
bookshelf" (except for last year when I was slogging through "Lord of the
Rings" after being enthralled by the movie's first installment), unless it's
a TC-related journal or computer magazine. (I have several ST novels backed
up in the to-read list too, probably waiting for the Xmas plane trip).
Electronic formats are not useful when reading in bed, on the beach, or in a
cafe or restaurant, nor do they take stickies or highlighers well.
