WHAT TECHNICAL WRITING 101 SAYS:
• “Technical manuals should be concise, simple and easy to follow.”
• Perfect grammar is not necessary.
• You must be a good writer to create a technical manual.

WHAT TOO BIG TO KNOW SAYS:
• “Deep reading and thinking developed because of books” Should manuals be so simple?
• “Technology is changing the way we think” Do we still need to adhere to strict writing rules?

MY THOUGHTS FOR THE AUTHOR OF TECHNICAL WRITING 101
• Short-simple manual section should indeed be provided for quick reference.
• It should not be the only manual available.
• A full manual that explains how and why a feature is included might make the interested reader eager to learn.
