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.
A quick tip, though. Don't enclose the link in any way. For instance,
don't do this: <http://www.fakedomain.com/>, or (http://
www.fakedomain.com/), or even end the link with a period. Some e-mail
programs will screw up when the link has enclosing <> or (), or if
any character other than a space is found immediately before or after
the link, so to be completely safe make sure the link is not enclosed
in any way.
Even this advice is client-specific, as I know of at least one mail client
which won't recognize links unless they *are* enclosed by "<" and ">".
Bottom line is, there's no way to be "completely safe" while doing this.
Have fun,
