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.
Science fiction abounds in computing, in such common phrases as:
"The latest Windows will not crash!"
Actually, the more I know about how computers actually operate, the
more I am inclined to the notion that it is a minor miracle when they
work at all.
Of course, the rejoinder to that might be:
"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
Arthur C. Clarke, "Profiles of The Future", 1961 (Clarke's third law)"
I see it's Friday even in California as I write--and 10:15 a.m. here.
Thus, this topic seems suitably appropriate...
