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.
It's funny this is being discussed. My office building is going to the open concept. Even though I could take or leave it, a lot of my coworkers are pitching fits. I think the biggest complaint they have is that they don't have their own space (meaning a 3.5 wall cube). We are going to the c-shaped cubes as well. There are a few of the older fellows in my office that tend to have a few siestas during the day that are pretty unhappy.
I figure I'll put on my noise cancelling headset, crank the music, and do my job.

Indeed. My open, C-shaped cube is catty-corner to the kitchen. Everyone who emerges with a cup of coffee (which means *everyone*) can see what's going on in my cube.
