Ava just turned 6, and has had her own camera for a year. It's a kids Fisher Price (I think) one, but she loves to take pics with it. I don't think it's that far fetched to think that she might have a nicer one in the next 2 years.

Now the other stuff...dating, pacts, texting...no way, no how. I fully intend on doing my darnedest to keep her "innocent" and little girlish as long as possible. Even now, it is getting harder to find clothes that I think are appropriate for a little girl. Forget Target anymore. Anyway, the only thing out of op's list that I would allow an 8 year old to do is have a camera.
