But other authors have suggested that terms used to define new media are too dependent on old media forms. For example, Murray (1997) argued the term multimedia, which most authors use to mean the ‘digital integration of media types within a single technological system’ (Jankowski and Hanssen, 1996: 4), is a word with little descriptive power. Murray compared the word ‘multimedia’ as a descriptor of new technology to the term ‘photo- play’ which was used to describe early films. She suggested that such additive, catchall phrases are evidence that a medium is: ‘in an early stage of development and is still depending on formats derived from earlier technologies instead of exploiting its own expressive power’ (1997: 67). Williams, Stover and Grant (1994) defined new media as applications of microelectronics, computers, and telecommunications that offer new services or enhancement of old ones. Marvin (1988) also focused on the interplay between ...... conventional wisdom presently is that something fundamentally and drastically new is happening, that is, the demographic changes are essentially transforming the society in extraordinary ways.
