TechWhirl: Technical Communication Recap for May 23, 2014

[TechWhirl Admin <admin -at- techwhirl -dot- com>]

Long holiday weekend here we come! Lots of US technical communicators
return to work today after the STC Summit, and get a long weekend to
recuperate from one day of hard work J. Fear not... TechWhirl has not been
idle while tech comm, and customer experience conferences soldiered on. So
you'll have plenty to catch up on over the weekend.



Get your introduction to eLearning, great shared expertise on optimizing
content for global audiences, and some background on being Word Wise. More
than a few of those weren't conferencing in tropical locales were chatting
amongst themselves in the TechWhirl community. Register for the
forum<http://community.techwhirl.com/entry/register?Target=categories>or
subscribe
to the email list<http://www.techwr-l.com/frequently-asked-questions.html#subscribe>join
them and offer your thoughts on HTML code reviews, commoditified
writing, optional plurals and much more. And donât forget to check out the
archives <http://www.techwr-l.com/> too.



Have a great weekend!
