Hi.

Welcome to Omneity. This is my baby, but I really want your help. I want your help through ideas, criticism, testing, new ideas, and (for those with the inclination and ability) coding.

Who the hell is Mark?
I started coding when I was about 13 (all the way back in the dark ages of 1980). I was immediately fascinated with computers and have spent my entire career working in IT. My degree is in Cognitive Sciences, specifically Artificial Intelligence, broken down minors in psychology, philosophy, liguistics, and computer science—yeah, it's a bit of a mixed bag.

I started 'proper work' as a software engineer. Initially working on expert systems, then on real-time traffic management systems. Then I moved into configuration management and build engineering. Over the next twenty years or so I've design and implemented dozens of IT system life-cycle management system, I've trained dozens of people to work in software CM, change management, release management, build engineering and management. I've worked in organisations of all sizes and shapes, with all manner of development environments.

It's interesting stuff. It's also irritating being faced with the same lack of tooling to do the things I need in order to quickly discover information I need to do my job. That's why Omneity was born.
