Volume.com,
the internet portal funded by HBO, has been totally reformed.
Volume was adversely affected by the America Online aquisition
of Time Warner. Originally, Volume.com had a staff that was taken
from The Source Magazine, ABC News, and several other prominent
places. However, the site will now focus less on original content
and more on an online community similar to BlackPlanet.com. Volume.com
never had the opportunity to launch with all of its original content,
interviews and Quicktime movies. Originally, it was supposed to
be a site that pushed the envelope with its cutting edge content.
