RAHUL PRABHAKAR

My name is Rahul Prabhakar, full-time senior technical communicator and trainer (assistant manager grade) for Samsung Electronics Company Limited, South Korea. I've been a programmer writer for more than seven years now. Additionally, I've taught technical communication to engineers at Samsung as an in-house trainer.

What I most enjoy about my job is it offers me a chance to learn about new products, technologies, and domains. I enjoy writing on a variety of subjects focusing mainly on technology, lifestyle, entertainment, management, and human interest stories.

My portfolio includes more than 100 articles published in more than a dozen publications. I am a regular contributor to magazines like Dataquest, The Smart Techie, India Economy Review, btw (by the way) – "Live Smart!", and INTERCOM.

I was interviewed by Tech Writer Voices--a podcast on technical communication. Also, a correspondent for Indo Asian News Service interviewed me for an article on "Technical writing - the new black gold of India."

My blog on technical communication related topics is titled, "When the Muse Strikes!" Refer to http://2brahulprabhakar.blogspot.com/ for more information. Other than my own blog, I am a guest blogger for Gearlog (PC Magazine), Tech-buzz, Gadgetell, TMCnet, and yaBloggy.

I am the owner and moderator of a technical communication listserv called Technical Writers India (TWI) on Yahoo! Groups, which is by far the largest mailing list for technical communicators in the Indian subcontinent (Refer to http://groups.yahoo.com/group/technical_writers_india/).

I enjoy writing; there is nothing else in the world I will give my right arm for. You can contact me at prabhakar[dot]rahul[at]gmail[dot]com.
