User Advocacy blog has a series on technical writing and its adaptation to the future.

Among technical writers, the state of the profession is a form of contention in itself. Many argue that assuming change is afoot is to knuckle under to the steady stream of buzzwords and fads that make a few venture capitalists rich while everyone else hits the job boards again. A growing faction of otherwise sceptical writers are thinking instead that transition is upon us, and will reward those who adapt.

The latest Creative Suites from Adobe - Creative Suite 3 Design for graphic designers, CS3 Web for web developers, and CS3 Production for audio/video producers all provide a high level of tool integration.

Note that these comprehensive suites all include some tools that Adobe acquired with their Macromedia purchase, most importantly Flash, but also Dreamweaver, RoboHelp, the former RoboDemo (now Captivate), and Breeze (now Connect).
