Saviour, there must be a gap between your desk and the webmaster's ... the digital editions are →not← up and running!
If the 'library' is the Archives, the available editions are from June backward.
The Subscription button leads to the same page: "Our digital newspaper will be back soon!
We are currently running some tests. Our digital newspaper will be online very soon. Until then, visit our home page to read the stories that appear both on the web and in print."

Digital editions of MT are up and running and can be accessed in the library.
Good luck everyone.

QUOTE:Comment noted but it will be video blog on the portal and the written word on the paper. These are two separate entities. If Seajay wishes to see the newspaper he will but he will have to subscribe and pay for it.
COMMENT:Saviour , if I may I have one word of advice. Please set up the
paper online before you ask for subscriptions and secondly be very careful in this process because most British papers that tried this business plan were not exactly successful. Your market is a lot smaller and as long as peoople can get the news through other channels, they will not hesitate to switch alliances. Once you loose them you will loose the right to claim a wide audience for commercial advertising rates.
Having said that I wish you nothing but success.

Saviour, if you check Seajay's IP, you'll find that he is about 7800Kms away from the nearest (Maltese) stationer, so he depends on the Internet to stay in touch with his native land.
And he asked to subscribe to MaltaToday way back in June at about the same time that the new portal opened up. Four months later and there is still no means to subscribe online. A shame, really, especially when one considers that Malta Today is the only Maltese newspaper worth its price.
Good luck with your videos. I still prefer the written word. Your blog could have both.

A little less movement please....otherwise keep it on....you're doing a good job.
As for Gonzi and his beefs, you must be doing something good otherwise he won't bother you like he won't bother the Times and the Boobsy Twins, Lou and Peppi.

If Seajay wishes to see the newspaper he will but he will have to subscribe and pay for it. If Seajay does not wish to wait for the newspaper subs to start he may if he wishes ask his stationer to reserve him a copy of MaltaToday or Illum.

With due respect, stick to the written word.
And consider bringing back your digital newspaper ... "soon" does not mean "never". It's been two months already. (Typical Maltese?)
