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.
For those of you (like me) who don't have full internet
connectivity, there's still a way to ftp. Send mail to
ftpmail -at- gatekeeper -dot- dec -dot- com with "help" as the body of
the message, and it will send you instructions on how to
use email to get things by ftp. Obviously, it's not as fast
as dialing in yourself, but it works, and they don't charge
for it (or guarantee anything, but hey, this is the net).
