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.
I'm afraid I'm "outing" myself as not much of a tech snob, but having used
every email product in the free world, I'm now with gmail and you'll have
to pry it out of my cold, dead hands. Tons of mail storage, accessible from
everywhere on every device, and I've never had a performance problem or an
outage.
YMMV, but I love it.
