For the most part, the Changchun Friends website is not very active and has been superseded by the Tencent "Wechat" app by the local expat community. This website is maintained sporadically, people may still join and membership is still open, but if you are a spammer, stay away. The archived information here is still useful, but some may be out of date. There are plans to make it more useful for static information in the future. If anyone needs information about Changchun or China, you may post a message and it probably will get a response but not immediately.
Every time I see the new logo I think about the Lovebug and Herbie.

Thanks Auntie - the only name that was left.
Say "Thank you, teacher Martin!" (and one whispers quietly; 'thank you uncle Google and Grandad Wikipedia.')
Herbie's trademark "53" racing number was chosen by producer Bill Walsh, who was a fan of Los Angeles Dodgers baseball player Don Drysdale (Drysdale's jersey number, later retired by the team, was 53).
It looks fun. I will search for it.
The Love Bug - Herbie- appeared in a very popular series of movies made by Walt Disney Studios. The Love Bug was a Volkswagen Beetle car that could think for itself and could do incredible stunts, and won a lot of races.
There was always lots of romance going on about him.
The number 53 was his number but I don't know why. Does anybody know out in Choonie Town?
I like the picture, especially the cute and lovely hearts in the air. The two lights are good idear.very intreasting! What's mean of the 53? Any special meaning?
