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.
ClientSide News has just done an interesting article on MadCap Lingo
(which I've picked up myself but haven't had a chance to play with
and know almost nothing about at this point). They seem to like it a
lot. There's also an article in this issue about the basics of
software localization that I want to pass on to my tech writing
students as a resource: it talks about space requirements and the
idea of cultural color preferences and so on, all those things that
you want to get the kids to start thinking out-of-the-box about.
