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.
My title of late is "Technical Specialist," which means something to some people within my company but sounds rather vague and generic to anybody else. To make things simpler, I just say I'm a technical writer and then go ahead and explain what THAT is.

Overall, I don't think there is a real distinction between the two and I don't think anyone can really find a true definition for either title (Tech Writer or Documentation Specialist)
