I'm looking for pointers to weblogs that focus on content,
writing, or other related technical communication subjects.
Curiously, the IA and graphic design communities seem to
have a wide variety of weblogs (many of which are on the
ID SIG's site at http://www.stcsig.org/id/bloglist.html),
but I found only a few that look at issues that would be
of interest to your average tech comm person.

Here are the ones I know about:

* Guy Haas: http://radio.weblogs.com/0102552 -- his is
very STC-specific, which is great.

* Fred Sampson: http://radio.weblogs.com/0107659 -- Fred
has some STC/writing entries, but I'd really classify
this as more of a personal weblog

* nublog: http://www.contenu.nu/nublog.html -- a weblog
on online content; alas, the author is really paring
back the entries

This can't possibly be all there are. Or if it is, then
let this be a call to tech writers out there to consider
getting into the game! Trust me, it's really fun :).

(And if you're reading this and wondering what the heck a
weblog is, check out Rebecca's "history and perspective"
at http://www.rebeccablood.net/essays/weblog_history.html.)

Feel free to email me pointers to weblogs, questions about
'em, or content that would be useful for IDblog, my weblog
on information design. Thanks!
