cassetes, dry plate photography and gravity.

By this definition it is the enthusiasm that is short-lived, not the
object that people enthuse over. Your dictionary's definition is
consistent with this. Digital photography will probably have a long
and distinguished career after it has gone through the initial burst
of enthusiasm. In 1999/2000 the e-commerce was a fad. Now it is no
longer a fad, but it has not gone away.
