If all you're really interested in doing is shooting pictures for posting on a website or email, then I would agree with others that about any relatively inexpensive "point & shoot" digicam currently available will get the job done. However if you're like a lot of us, you will become addicted to digital photography, and will want a higher quality camera. You will then start wondering about the high-rez $1000 (or over) type cameras (I know this may not be in your cards yet...but hear me out). You will learn that there are at least 5 different 8 megapixel digicams capable of taking very good pictures -- still basically P&S but offer amenities that "pretend" to make them look like SLRs. However for that money, there are two excellent "entry level" digital SLRs that most serious photographers would say beat the high megapixel digicams hands-down. They are the Canon Rebel and the new Nikon D70 -- both have received excellent reviews. Having recently bought one of the 8 megapixel digicams, and quickly discovering its shortcomings (high noise, etc), I'm leaning toward selling that camera and moving to an SLR (probably the Nikon D70). Sort of a long-winded comment but I've been the P&S digicam route & unless you have absolutely no real interest in photography, you WILL eventually want to consider a digital SLR.
