The title of this article is grammatically incorrect, it should be 'Timeline of photographic technology'. Taking a pragmatic approach, it may not be worth the exercise of renaming, but everything in Wikipedia should be as correct as possible, so an error like this is unfortunate.

Shouldn't the introduction of the new digital cameras be mentioned
in the timeline?
There was an article in "Scientific American" about the use of asphalt to make (very) crude pictures. This was postulated to be the first photograph.
Someone qualified (I'm not even a photographer) please check this and include if proper.24.10.102.46 04:56, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
Asphalt ? I think you are refering to what we call in French "bitume de Judée" ("bitume" is roughly équivalent to "asphalte" in French) that was used in Niepce's process. There is no need to update the timeline IMO. Ericd 17:37, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] external link
I have a page on my own website that deals with the history of digital photography (it starts with a brief history of photography itself, then links to the history of digital photography).
I would like to add it as a resource, but have been informed that I can't as it is my own site and Wikipedia rules don't allow this. Apparently someone else can take a look and add it if they feel it is worth it.
It's not a timeline, but more a commentary. I think it's an interesting read for someone who has already looked through this timeline page.
The url for my history page is: http://www.digital-photography-tips.net/history_of_digital_photography.html
I'd be obliged if someone would have a look through this page (and the links from it) and add it to the resources if they feel it is appropriate.
Thanks in advance,
