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.
Again, nothing is collected beyond what every single website server in the
world collects. No personal information is collected. Nothing is installed
on your computer, nothing is sent anywhere.
There is no violation of privacy because nothing identifiable about you is
collected.
