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 have found a great deal of excellent material for newsletter articles and
such in this forum. If I want to reprint, say, someones anecdote about
finishing a project on time, can I just copy that email, use that story in
my article about corporate politics, and submit it for publication? Or do I
need to email the author and get permission?
I have heard that if something is placed on the internet, it is *free*
information for everyone to use and redistribute. Does this apply when using
this list-group as a source for articles?
Just asking before I even think of doing anything,
