If you're like Clark, you snap a lot of digital photos and then have trouble getting them out of the camera and into the real world. He's too lazy to figure out how to hook up the cable to his computer to print them or upload to a website! There's a new solution to this problem that's been getting some great reviews. A company called Eye-Fi sells a memory chip for your camera with built-in wifi. The chip, which is SD compatible, automatically uploads images to your computer or a photo-sharing site. At $100, Eye-Fi chips cost of about 8 times what you'd pay for a standard 2 GB memory chip. But prices should be dropping by the end of the year. Eye-Fi will work with most major photo-sharing sites including Snapfish, Shutterfly and Flickr.

Meanwhile, the cost of developing pictures is dropping and there are a lot of value-added propositions. Clark recently received a bound, hardcover book with photos and commentary to commemorate a trip that he and his wife took with another couple. That's how advanced photo processing has become. Remember the old days when Clark would recommend having a disposable camera in the trunk so you could take pictures if you were in a fender bender? Today people would probably just use their camera phone and e-mail pictures directly to the police!
