Re: OT: Tech writers and cookbooks

[Jo Baer <jbaer -at- mailbox1 -dot- tcfbank -dot- com>]

Although this started as an off-topic thread, I think the progression has been
interesting, and actually on-topic. There's been a lot of discussion about
presenting material, making it accessible, and accommodating diverse audiences.
And isn't that really a crucial component of tech writing? This has been a fun
exercise in looking at information design from a fresh perspective.

In an offline reply to another whirler I suggested, jokingly, that we should
start a cookwhirler list. Maybe it's not such a far-fetched idea...

If you can remain calm, you
just don't have all the facts.
