With the advent of online technology including the ability to manage online gallery of your photos, would you consider this as a replacement of the traditional Album of keeping photos wherein your print and compile it by year or by occasion?

I prefer the traditional photo album. I don't know but there is something that I feel when I browse the pages of an album. I love to print photos even if they are already secured in an online site or in my laptop. It's nice to put some hand-made decorations in an album thus making a slumbook.

I agree with you, the feeling is totally different! I love the feeling, there's really something with the traditional album compilation of photos.

I try to do both, although I don't print all the pictures I put online. One of the reasons is that when you have visitors and want to show them something, pictures from a holiday etc, I think it is more social to look in a real album together than to take out your computer and start looking for files.

Yes, pictures somehow reminds you of old times especially when your visitor is your old time friends and you will find your old photos :D It will spark more topics to talk about way back when :D

I prefer online albums. The first big advantage of online albums are that you don’t have the fear of misplacing or loosing the. They are intact and never loose the quality. You can share you pictures over the internet very easily and that too for free. Then there are other small things like comments and other which make the album more interesting and you get feedback of people for those moments.
