Even if I had a digital camera (and I'm waiting until the pixel density is 3000x5000) (cheap) ...where would I view the pix? This old Mac is photophobic. ...And I really, rreeaallllyy don't want to spend cash money on a Billybox. Or a printer. Eeeekkkk! I don't WANT to own a printer. I need to get the old 8mm celluloiterer fixed.

I think it WILL happen... Everyone will be using digital cameras before long. I guess the big obstacle is that new technology takes awhile to be adopted... Sometimes someone has to show the way... To show just how "easy" it can be. I think the first line usually starts with "the kids"... When kids learn about technology at school and then come home with this stuff, it doesn't take long for the parents to get moving in the same direction. ~~~~~~~~ What I think I like so much about all of this media stuff... photos, film, music, is that it makes it possible to "share" images, sound, ideas, thoughts.... ...makes it possible to engage in 2-way discussions... ...like with the bent spike pic last week... I've been building websites and putting up photos for about 3 years now... some of it serious, and some of it just experimental and totally for the heck of it... Have had a lot of interesting feedback from all over the world about some of this stuff... Somehow that makes the world seem just that much smaller and more open to me... It's fascinating....
