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 would rather have a million lurkers on a mailing list than one who does
any of the following:
- doesn't read the FAQ before posting
- doesn't know how to unsubscribe and posts to the list asking how to
- thinks he/she knows it all and lets everyone know
- is belligerent about his/her opinions and expresses them rudely
- feels the need to respond to almost every message, whether he/she can
usefully contribute or not
- figures the list owes him/her a response and complains when it doesn't
come within a couple of hours
- has the nerve to say "I don't have time to read the list, so respond
off-list"
