We used to be called technical writers and editors
. . . before we stopped writing. If you have a stack of manuals
near your computer, chances are good that you didn't get them
with the products you bought this year.
I work for a software developer, and I'm a part of
the group that's responsible for providing you with the information
(in the form of online help, manuals and tutorials, mainly) you
need to use our product. I once was known as a mighty editor,
but lately I've been poking around in the technological junk drawer
we fondly call multimedia. I am truly in awe of the masters of
this discipline. I can swear in four languages, and I'm sure I
used every word I know a dozen times as I braved my way through
my last project.
If you're a technical communicator, too, you might
find these sites interesting.
