Resume
J. Barry Eckert Welcome to my website! This site is to introduce myself to prospective employers, and to give them some idea of how I can benefit their company. I am a native of Birmingham, the largest city in Alabama. After a number of years of avid interest in computers, I decided to pursue a career in the IT industry. After all, do what you love and a job becomes more than just a paycheck, right?
For a little over a year, I have been working in technical support positions. This has been an enjoyable occupation for me, since it combines my computer avocation with an opportunity to be of help to people. It has been very gratifying to talk to people from all over the U.S., of varying technical ability, and assist them in resolving their problems.
My current interests are to move to technical writing, and perhaps at a later time to pursue a network administrator career path. Technical writing is interesting to me for several reasons. First of all, I simply enjoy language. It is also offers a somewhat more detail-oriented, precise approach than the ad hoc nature of tech support. Finally, in my experience, much of the documentation produced for computer software either fails to give enough information or it is simply unreadable. Seldom does a user manual strike a balance between these two problems. I want to apply the skills I have to help produce accurate, complete, and understandable documentation in order to benefit both the company and the user.

    General Technical Writing Guidelines
    Technical writing has earned the reputation of being dense, difficult to read, and at times, incoherent. Jargon is responsible for some of the difficulty that readers have, but difficulty in reading can also happen when writing does not conform to standard rules of grammar for written English. Some types of errors are more common than others in technical writing. One of the most common complaints of scientific writing is that it is not clear. Read and apply some strategies for improving sentence clarity to write more clearly for your audience. This is possibly the most important step you can take in making sure that others will understand your writing.
    Mechanical errors can also cause readers to be confused, and it is especially important to pay attention to mechanical rules when submitting a paper for publication. Some of the most important things for technical writers to pay attention to are:

    Some Advice on Writing a Technical Report
    Alan T. Sherman
    DRAFT: April 27, 1996
    The Technical Report (TR) is a common written form through which computer scientist communicate their findings. Each TR should have a focused topic that is developed logically along some clearly identified perspective. The major components of a TR are title, author information, date, keywords, informative abstract, body, acknowledgments, references, and appendices. Typically, the body is organized into four sections: motivation, methods, results, and discussion. This document offers advice and specifications for writing TRs.
    Overview
    Communicating results is a crucial aspect of doing research. Through such communication other people can learn about and benefit from the findings. Often such communication includes a written document known as a Technical Report (TR) . The successful researcher must master this important written form. A TR should explain what you did, why you did it, what you discovered, and what is significant of your findings. The report should identify clearly what is novel about your work, and how it relates to prior knowledge. There should be a focused topic, and an attitude about this topic. The topic should be developed according to the attitude in a thorough, logical, and orderly fashion. Throughout, the author should be helpful to the reader. The report should include the following components: descriptive title, author name and affiliation, date, informative abstract, list of keywords, body, acknowledgments, and list of references. Additional separate appendices, where appropriate, may also be included. The standard four-part outline for the body of a technical report is motivation, methods, results, and discussion.

    Rose Norman
    New York Times
    What Is a Technical Writer?
    Describing what technical writers do is rather like trying to explain what teachers do, except that most people are generally familiar with teachers, while relatively few have ever met a technical writer. Like teaching, technical writing may involve a wide range of activities and, at the same time, may lead to a high degree of specialization. The federal Occupational Outlook Handbook Technical writers put scientific and technical information into readily understandable language. They prepare manuals, catalogs, parts lists, and instructional materials used by sales representatives to sell machinery or scientific equipment and by technicians to install, maintain, and service it.
