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.
If you are a student (or know of someone who is), Framemaker offers
an educational discount - $199 for the package. Although this may
still seem steep it surely is better than the $500+ for the corp.
rate. The educational package is not altered and upgrades are
available.
Educational rates are also available for Pagemaker. I just picked
up 5.0 for $170. Hope this helps.
