(update 2011)
Follow me on Twitter! I will post news, views, blog updates, weather, lots of Phuket related information.
There are 2 local Phuket print newspapers in English. The biggest and original is the Phuket Gazette. I also suggest you check The Phuket News which is now vying with the Phuket Gazette as the best online and print source of Phuket news. There is also the Phuket Post, which is more of a magazine with ads than a newspaper.
For more Phuket news sources, see here: Phuket News - Where to Find it

Anti Government Protests in Bangkok, Phuket and more.
Seems like this is the big news day of the year. Protests and huge gatherings of PAD (People's Alliance for Democracy) supporters were met by tear gas in Bangkok. Meanwhile in Phuket... I decided to kind of "live blog" for a while.. The situation in Bangkok continues even now, though Phuket is totally normal.

The tsun... yeh, you know. Big wave. Not very pleasant.
In case nobody ever heard of Phuket, they sure as hell did after the tsunami. If you come now, you won't see any signs of what happened. Khao Lak and Phi Phi were hit harder, but are also looking healthy, if a little empty. My many thoughts below.
• 4 Years After the Tsunami (written December 2008)
• Living through the Tsunami
• Living through the Tsunami Part II
• Life After the Tsunami (Part III)
• A trip to Phi Phi in 2006
