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.
My mother-in-law gave me a neat gift for Christmas this past year. Like a
durn fool, I didn't keep the brand name, but essentially it's a basic mouse
pad with a Velcro strip on one end. What attaches to it is one of those
gel-things (what do I do for a living? I'm a TW!) you put in the freezer.
For extended periods of time, of course, it offers no real help. But if you
have some pretty good pain, the ice will help ease the inflammation in your
wrist. I use if for my wrist and if my days are long, it's a good thing to
put on the back of my neck!!
Good luck!
