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.
Look how "Seinfeld" directly helped to flood the comedian market, leading to
degraded salary scales for all comedians, not to mention the now notorious
Comedy Central layoffs of 2000-2001.
If the Andy Richter show is at all successful, everyone and their sibling
will want to work in a crowded office for some faceless corporation while
their innermost dreams and aspirations whither and die like so many autumn
leaves, their hour of fruition long since gone, fallen to the ground to
await the cold snows of an inexorably approaching winter.
Worse yet, my salary might go down.
