You'll notice a few recent changes on Pweb, including the obvious change in design. When we first switched Pusanweb over to the Drupal CMS almost a year ago, we thought  we'd be modifying the basic theme design pretty quickly, but as you've probably noticed we wound up with that boring B7 theme for much too long. 
   We've begun experimenting with some other options and want your feedback. This current theme is based on 'LiteJazz' and aside from a very different look, it adds the functionality of posting recent blog posts, ads, and forum topics up top. Personally, I don't really like the color scheme there (not very readable), but otherwise think it's got potential. If you hate it and miss the old theme, you can switch back by logging in, clicking 'My Account/Edit' and choosing another theme.  We hope to roll out some other options soon.  If there are any design geeks out there interested in helping to make Pweb prettier, we'd welcome help.
  We've also recently updated the forums program and removed the frame from that page.  We've gotten some reports of login issues, but are working to resolve them.  If you are having trouble staying logged in to the forums, check out this thread.  More changes are on the horizon, so stay tuned for the Pwebolution. As always, thanks much for being part of the  Pusanweb community, and if you see things you'd like to change or improve, don't be hostile, be helpful.

Three new blogs have been submitted recently to the Pweb Blog Roll:

The business listings and review section of Pweb is slowly, slowly crawling towards usefulness. If you know of a good business, bar, restaurant, hairdresser, garage, let the rest of the community know. Click on Buisness Listings and Reviews to learn how to add your two cents to the site.

And, as always, events are constantly being added to the calendar. Again, make the calendar your own by adding a festival, event, concert, or any other sort of event to the calendar.

Vinyl Underground is kicking off the first New Wave 80's Night this Friday (6th) and every Friday all summer long. There are drink specials and prizes for the best dressed, 80's style. So get your hairspray out and head on down to Vinyl.

Soul Trane is kickin' with a new nite of their own: Funked Up Friday, a new and funky night every Friday with the new residents C.O.G., playing a mix of soul, funk disco and house. 

If you're more into a hillbilly sound, Kettle Mountain Social, Busan's residence bluegrass band, will be playing live, starting around 11:30 am, this Friday (13th) at Crossroads, in PNU.

 Next Saturday has something for everyone. If you're looking to hit the road, the 10th Boryeong Mud Festival runs from Saturday the 15th to the 22nd. It's a bit of a haul to get there, but lots of folk feel it's worth it. Directions to get there are on the event website.

Not wanting to go so far? The Rotten Dead Motorcycle Club is organizing the Summer 07 Poker Run. Everyone who can beg, borrow or buy a bike of any size is welcome. Click on the link for more info.

Finally, the Busan branch of the Korean Muslims Federation invites all Muslims and non-Muslims to the 1st Islamic Symposium on Saturday, July 14th, starting at 2:00 pm.  This Symposium is arranged for non-Muslims especially. For directions and more information, visit the Event Calendar.

 This SATURDAY night, DJ Lexey of NYC will be spinning at the Vinyl Underground in Kyungsung-dae. There will be drink specials for the ladies before midnight and the resident DJs will start off the night around 9:00. Music goes 'til dawn.

If the DJ scene isn't your style, you might be more interested in the first ever Songwriter's Night at Moe's in PNU. Starting at around 10:00 pm, local musicians will be playing only 100% original songs. Head to Moe's (2nd floor of Soul Trane) to support local talent.
