College Yearbooks turning digital

Many colleges are having their yearbooks go digital:

It's a wonder they haven't thought of this before now. I would not be at all surprised if many other learning institutions (high schools, etc.,) begin adopting this procedure very soon also.

This is a good idea for preserving the memories, but I wonder if it means schools will eventually stop selling yearbooks? Creating a digital version would be a lot less expensive than getting a bunch of hardcover books printed up every year.

On the other hand, it's difficult to sign a digital yearbook with personal comments and keep it for years. Some people may not want to give up that experience.
