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.
I've been a fan of Adobe's Myriad Pro for a long time. Adobe now sets their
manuals in Minion and Myriad Pro, which I think is a gorgeous combination.
For the record, I think Times New Roman and Comic Sans should be banned from
all computers.
