I have a little list: the ten indispensables [technical communication]

Even in this high-tech, fast-paced multimedia world the simple list is still one of the most useful tools for the technical communicator.

Each list provides the answer to a question, and should solve some problem or make life easier for you. I first explore when and how to develop a list.

The presentation adds details about these and uses examples from the audience to work through an exercise to develop customized lists for specific situations
