Storytelling and Podcasting – New Media for Technical Communication

Interesting local STC talk coming up next week:
"As technical communicators, it's our job to make sure technical content is accessible and available to end users. We typically write and publish by means of documents, help systems, or Web sites. Are there alternatives? Is there a better way? Explore the possibilities with Timothy Keirnan, co-founder MIUPA, and Professor Corinne Stavish, LTU."
