Meet Erin.  Going into 7th grade and finding out her best friend will not be in the same classes.  Erin and Jilly have been best friends since Kindergarten and Erin has never really had to faced any situation without Jilly's input.  Erin begins to keep an electronic blog to write down her feelings.  Of course, she will not publish it.  She just keeps it on disk and shares her most secret thoughts.  But 7th grade doesn't turn out so bad after a rough start.  Erin makes new friends and gets involved in the school's new Intranet Club.  She finds that people even come to her with problems when it comes to computer code.  But the boy she likes chooses Jilly over her and things start going wrong.  Through a series of errors, Erin's life is about to get a whole lot worse.
