The new yummy!

The new Yummy is coming soon. I have been working on really tearing apart a PDF, so everyone can basically get all the information they need before they have to download. Like: Summary, HTML version, PDF Indexing and searching, Google PDF Search API, working thumbnails, accurate PDF metadata etc. Once I find the best java pdf manipulator I will post them here. (suggestions welcome)

Its really meant to be a personal Library. That being the case, I think a clean un del.icio.us design is called for. Let me know your thoughts! Thanks, Brandon

The Corbin Free Spirit.

My sister Kim Corbin has to be one of the most interesting people I know. My family is not lacking in "strong personalities" and Kim helps reinforce that point more than any of us. As a matter of fact a few years back she decided to start a National Skipping Movement. Yes, skipping like you did when you were a child. My dad and I thought she was nuts, but using that great Corbin dedicated, she ended up in People Magazine, The Wallstreet Journal, Donny & Marie Show, NPR, Self Magazine, and hundreds of other big publications. Full list.

Believe it or not, there are skipping groups in almost every major city. Crazy right? The Corbin family wouldn't have it any other way! Here's to the crazy ones!
