CoreyChapman.com is now back online!


After 3 years of being offline, I've re-opened my personal site.  I have to completely rebuild it though, so you'll find it pretty empty for a while.  I had to close it because of the spam and worms hitting the guestbook and news comments of the previous format.  I'll see if I can preserve some of the old content and put it into this new system though.

I was born in Creve Coeur, Missouri, on July 31, 1981. I lived in Villa Ridge for about 2 years, then I lived in a small house in Pacific for 17 years.  I had two girlfriends during high school (junior and senior years).

I graduated 4th in a class of 220 at Pacific High School with a 4.2 GPA. I was in all sorts of clubs like Key Club, Beta Club, and TREND. Several of my friends went with me to the University of Missouri - Rolla (now Missouri University of Science and Technology) for college. I lived in 4 dorm rooms, a 2-story house, and an efficiency apartment while in Rolla for school.  Part of the way through, my mom moved us to Ballwin (aka "West County St. Louis"). I also only had two girlfriends during college and went on a couple dates with a few girls. I graduated Magna Cum Laude in May 2004 with a BS, Engineering Management and a Minor, Computer Science. I was in many organizations there - Phi Eta Sigma, Circle K, CESA, SUB, Newman, ODK, Tau Beta Pi, AID, EMH, Phi Kappa Phi, most of which I've been an officer in. I was a Resident Assistant for 1 1/2 years at Thomas Jefferson Residence Hall.

To ensure this code release, Wilco Jansen resorted to sending rum to joint lead-developer Johan Janssens. Johan, who's had a penchant for rum ever since the first "Pirate's of the Caribbean" movie screened, took the bait, mixed it with Cola, and here we are with our latest 1.5 release. It looks like pirate talk will figure quite a lot in future Joomla! development!

The Joomla! team has about 1 million good reasons to be smiling about the Joomla! 1.5. In its current incarnation, it's had more than 1 million downloads, taking it to an unprecedented level of popularity. The new code base is almost an entire re-factor of the old code base. The user experience is still extremely slick but for developers the API is a dream. A proper framework for real PHP architects seeking the best of the best.

If you're a former Mambo User or a 1.0 series Joomla! User, 1.5 is the future of CMSs for a number of reasons. It's more powerful, more flexible, more secure, and intuitive. Our developers and interface designers have worked countless hours to make this the most exciting release in the content management system sphere.
