History of digital photography, starting from the 1800's, with loads of information you don't really need and lots of links. Did you know that electronic photography was first proposed in 1908? Or that the first photo was scanned in 1957?

Of course this is only one of the possible histories of digital photography, but the reason I think this one is worth checking out is the amount of pictures and other information it contains.

I'm having a bit of trouble with the concept.
