I process the film and than I put the entire roll through a batch scanner. The scanner scans each frame by itself. I leave it alone, come back 30 minutes later and every photo is scanned right off of the negative.
Everything is scanned to TIFF files. They come out alot better than digital pictures and I can go back and scan them at a higher res if I want. I scan everything at 2100 DPI I can go up to 4800 but it's unnecessary untless I'm making a poster or something.

Neal, the best scanner for the money is this one.

It's only 400 dollars and it does what my 2,000 dollar scanner does but it's just slower. It also has digital ICE (make sure you leave this on).
What you do is bring your roll to a photo store (even CVS) and tell them "I only want these processed, no prints or photo CD." Make sure you also tell them "Do not cut the negatives. Just leave them in their entire strip.
You will get back a strip of film that should be only one piece. Carefully carry them (do not roll them up tightly it may scratch or damage the film). Load them in the scanner and off you go. Let it do it's thing, about an hour later you have an entire roll scanned beautifully. Take them into Photoshop and mess with them.
After your negatives are done scanning store them hanging in this. It's the best way to store them.

Basically it's a clear plastic thing the width of your 35mm film. It's a clear protectant plastic that goes over the entire roll. I stick Avery 8960 lables on my Filmguard to identify the roll.
