First, you should find a hosting site to store them. If for no other reason, for disaster recovery. But it also gives you a way to share them, link to them in forums, etc. PBase, SmugMug, Flickr, Fokti, Zenfolio, etc - Google for photo hosting sites. I haven't looked in a while but there are plenty of comparison articles out there. Many of them have limited storage free options, or $30-50/yr full accounts.

I have printed a few photobooks, internally and for family gifts. Again, lots of options and many articles comparing them.

I've also printed out some of my better shots in 18x12 format, framed, and hanging around the house. Plus a couple of electronic frames around with rotating photos on the LCD panel.

The most enjoyment I have is from shooting kids' sport, local events, etc., hosting them on my SmugMug account, and pointing parents, friends, attendees at them to do what they wish. I don't try to make any money off of it - if I charged for them, I'd be neurotic in post-processing to make the best of every shot, consuming way too much time. I figure that if it's free, they can't complain.
