Film seems to be going the way of the buggy whip and the carburetor.
Although it will continue to be used for quite a while, film will be used in more and more specialized situations. Digital cameras, on the other hand, will be used to take lots of pictures in many different situations rather than being a toy used by geeks. People want to see their pictures as soon as they take them. They also want to be able to manipulate those pictures and publish them on the Web. The latter tasks are done with a computer, so if your picture is already in digital form, you are halfway there.
