Abstract
As has been described in Chap. 2, digital media have to be understood as a fundamentally new cultural phenomenon, which creates a functionally distinct symbolic layer and a new set of communicative options for society. Digital media do not substitute previous information and communication technologies, like language, script, print, or broadcasting, but rather comprise, recombine, and complement them with new opportunities of expression.
