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.
Those who write errors and warnings may appreciate this instruction,
found by a tech writing colleague of mine who was working long hours last
weekend. She purchase some canned soup from a vending machine, and was
amused by the direction "Do no heat unopened can for more than 3 days."
Another colleague later pointed out that some vending machines might
indeed heat things for several days... a case where a little clarity
might go a long way...
