I often use Twitter to post links to information about technical communication and related industries. I hope these information sources provide valuable content and help you look at technical communication in new ways. By sharing information, we can create better solutions and design new ways to serve the needs of our audience.

I was scheduled to present Integrating Help, Technical Support, and Training Content in Washington DC on October 29, 2012. Unfortunately, Hurricane Sandy had other plans for me. We are in the process of scheduling a webinar for the Washington DC-Metro chapter, potentially for April 2013. I am looking forward to exploring the topic of integrating content across departments with my colleagues in the Washington DC and Baltimore area.
I had the pleasure of attending the Practical Conference on Communication (PCOC) 2012 on October 26-27, 2012.

The interaction level at the event was great and allowed many of us to discuss ideas and explore topics in an engaging way.
