Some sites narrow their focus and take a bite-size chunk of the teen market.
We checked out six that specialize in various categories. News, reviews, and features are well written and cover music news, celebrities, sports, style, games, TV, and movies. An advice column addresses such teen concerns as violence in the media. Boards, chat, and other community features are still under construction. Like some other sites, NirveNation requires Shockwave for features including Nirve TV and Nirve Radio, which broadcast news, interviews, and other events fairly successfully.
