Mark Olynciw
is 15 years old, but already old enough to graduate into the Weblog
Hall of Fame. Already online longer, and more often, than the
dot.com guy, Mark has become
the teen-hero of the weblogging world. Wise beyond his years. Sexier
than his peers. Unbearabley nice, all sugar, no spice, except for
his sticky-out ears.
As Prom King,
Mark is gifted with going out with the Prom Queen. Luckily for Mark,
there are plenty of weblogging princess ready to trade up. Especially
for a catch like Mark. He's already started his own harem.
Can a fan club be that far behind?

Tracy Scarpino
owns ouch!, a weblog that
is designed in black and grey, and written in colours. Well, colour
names anyway. Tracy is "proud of the fact that Roger Ebert
once called [her] an idiot." And that was only because Roger
couldn't work out what the hell "#FFFFFF wine" is.
Having finished
flirting with Roger Ebert, she has begun flirting with Mark
Olynciw. Mark has promised to date her, provided that she reveals
the left side of her face. What Mark doesn't realise is that Tracy's
face has had a dead fetus
surgically grafted to it. It seemed a good idea at the time; perhaps
no longer so.

Ah Zannah,
digital girl... with a browser and too much spare time. Between
weblogging and work, Zannah has just enough "bandwidth"
to hand stitch her Prom dress for the Big Day. Although Zannah and
Mark haven't crossed links yet, it's inevitable that they do so.
Written in the stars.
Not that Zannah
can't cope on her own. She's come as close as anyone to turn a gay
man straight, and knows her way around mastubation.
Which is very, very, very, very, very handy for online life. Especially
when #blogIRC
moves to "blue sunday night".

Caroline van
Oosten de Boer is a self professed drama junkie, which is why she
is dying to become the Weblog Prom Queen. Though she is stationed
in Amsterdam, and Mark in Waterford, CT, Caroline is determined
to make this long-distance relationship work. Or have several screaming
matches trying.
Caroline has
already started her online relationship with Mark, though things
are off to a rocky start. It's just that, well, Mark seems a lot
older online, and Caroline a lot younger... but who knows? Opposites
attract, right? Caroline may yet become Prom Queen. Or at the very
least, get in a cat fight with Tracy
and Zannah.
