New Look and New Approach to Blog/Podcast

by Tom Johnson on Jan 1, 2007
categories: blogging • technical-writing

Up until now, the blog and podcast have been going in two different directions. I decided it's time to unify them more. They are still two separate sites, but they now mirror each other in theme. I plan to use the blog to accumulate topics that I will eventually talk more freely about in the podcast.

I'm also planning a little different direction for the podcast. Previously, I've mostly interviewed other people. In the upcoming year, I plan to do more cohost podcasts podcasts.

10/5/07 Update: As you can see if you've been following my blog and the Tech Writer Voices podcast, I scrapped both of these ideas.

About Tom Johnson

Tom Johnson

I'm an API technical writer based in the Seattle area. On this blog, I write about topics related to technical writing and communication — such as software documentation, API documentation, AI, information architecture, content strategy, writing processes, agent skills, tech comm careers, and more. Check out my AI courses for more on the latest in AI and tech comm. If you're looking for info about documenting APIs, see my API documentation course.

If you're a technical writer and want to keep on top of the latest trends in tech comm, be sure to subscribe to email updates below. You can also learn more about me or contact me.

Finally, I want to note a couple of things. I usually write the first drafts of my posts myself and then use AI to improve accuracy, clarity, and detail in places, so my writing is a mix of human and AI. (Hopefully that's not too off-putting.) Also, the opinions I express on my blog are my own perspectives, not those of my employer.
