About

November 16th, 2010 by Marcus Povey

Hi, my name is Marcus Povey. I am a Software Information Architect and Platform Designer currently based in Oxford, England.

I am an experienced and imaginative developer with a wide range of commercial experience and am skilled at creating smart solutions to complex problems.

I have worked on everything from medical software and secure messaging systems to social networks platforms and APIs.

I helped develop the Open Source social networking platform Elgg, and was an integral part of its architecture design process from version 1.0 onwards. I was also Information Architect at Latakoo, a Texas based media startup.

Right now I’m a coder for hire. Have laptop, will travel.

Outside of work I enjoy rock music, travel, skiing, climbing, capoeira and piloting light aircraft.

If you want to contact me professionally, this can be done via LinkedIn profile. I am also active on Twitter, Google+ and Flickr.

    Hi Marcus ;-)

    Missing your presence on the Elgg Forums ;-)
    ESP When I remember the ‘old days’ when we used
    to see you informative techie posts @there..
    And some of which had triggered me to more research
    to come up with new ways to do things w/ Elgg.
    Thanks for all that…

    Regards,
