You can scan them and save them to your computer but the resulting picture will not be any better than the original. However you could enhance them using a photo editing program.
Buy a flatbed scanner and digitize each photograph you have. You can then upload the digital copies online. If you have lots of photos, you might want considering paying someone else to do the job for you. Ask at digital printing and film developing shops.
you can use a flatbed scanner or take a photo of the photos with a digital camera.
Using a scanner would quickest and easiest since it's just a matter of placing them on the glass and pressing a button. If you take photos of photos, you have to worry about getting the picture parallel with the sensor and you have to ensure that there isn't any glare/reflections on the photo.
All I do is rephotograph them using a DSLR with image stabilisation in reflection-free North Light. Results tend to be better than using a nasty old scanner, except for colour transparencies.
You need the photos to stay flat and to do that you may need a sheet of clear glass. Equal light then needs to come down at 45 degrees from each side. Camera can be on a tripod too.

Scan with a scanner.

There are apps you could download that could help, like Google PhotoScan.
You could also use a scanner to get the pictures onto a computer & do whatever from there.
Also (may still be) kiosks that are basically scanners that do the same, digitalize the pictures.

With computer.
Scan them, or copy them with a good-quality digital camera.
Any good scanner will do it. You can also get dedicated photo scanners or just take pictures of the photos with a digital camera.
