What is your final product (book, gallery)?

I exhibit my photographs as well as having some around the house. I also self publish limited edition zines. I like to see my photographs in print but I also have a website and blog.
 
negs in a box and data on a harddisk...

🙁

I catch myself doing this too most of the times.

Personally, I like making books with Aperture/Lightroom. It requires a lot of work though. Which mostly consists of obtaining
images that create a story.
A friend of mine has a photo printer and he prints his stuff himself, then stacks them up in a box. He shows it to friends when they come over.
Another of mine never goes outside digital world in his photography, he maintains a web-site and sends his work to various magazines and competitions.

I noticed that I don't have any of my photographs hanging anywhere in my appartment. For some reason I enjoy other people's work better. But the greatest reward for me is if my friends display my pictures in their chambers.
 
Photobooks are one of the great innovations in analog media made very accessible by digital photography and desktop publishing done simple and approachable to the layperson. They are hands down the most cost-effective form of print media for photographic archiving.

I use books for the chronological record, prints for the wall on a rotated basis, and the web for everything, cordoned off for private viewing only.

I agree completely and do exactly the same. These books help with editing too, since seeing it in print sometimes makes you know immediately that it does not work (where sometimes you get fooled on the screen).
 
Right now, since I am concentrating on family pics, it will be a photo wall in our house, other framed pics for my desks and gifts for my Mom and in-laws, and finally one day, a photobook for each of my children documenting their childhood.
 
Most of the time images for the web. I am growing fond of photobooks both as a permanent, tangible record of my best work and as something I can give to others.
 
every time i see a topic like this i think. I need to print some stuff.

Generally negatives and digital files for me. Some of the better stuff makes it to my website but im slow at that also.
