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.
Not exactly. The last book I bought was "Human Factors for Technical
Communicators" by Marlana Coe. It's copyright date is 1996 and it is
part of the "Wiley Technical Communication Library" series. They list
10 books (I only have 5 of them) in the series within the 1996 book's
front matter. I think the problem is the Wiley web site. Someone is
asleep at the switch.
I do think it's possible that they are or will soon be discontinuing
the series, though. I'd like to talk to someone at Wylie and find out
why. Maybe tech writers aren't buying enough tech communication books
or something.
