I like the online paper below also. This is an online version of Amigoe based in Curaçao covering a little bit more "hard" news for Aruba, Bonaire and Curaçao http://www.amigoe.com/english/

Arrow Aruba News
I, too, have to get my daily Aruba "fix" by reading "Aruba Today" every morning. I recall seeing a post a while ago that said "The News" was expected to be online in the near future. Any updates on that?

Margaret Weaver did mention that The News would be going online. Hope it is soon as I really like the evening News.

This link should work:
http://www.amigoe.com/english/
They are usually pretty good at updating. Even more so than Aruba Today, though the last couple of days in not a very good example. They also do not have an archive. Once new news is posted, the old stories are gone.

Date at the top will be today Sunday 19 August 2007
Last Update: Thursday, August 16, 2007

Scroll down the page for the Aruba news. Aruba news is usually in the middle, unless there is something REALLY big going on, and Bonaire (KRALENDIJK ) at the end.

The news this day is "School started again"
