No Nonsense in November and Donna Howard's campaign both used online phonebanking in their campaigns to contact voters; I think it's a great way to harness the power of the netroots and to clean up voter information lists for future campaigns. I booked a computer lab at Rice last year during No Nonsense and was able to have a half-dozen volunteers call Double D voters from the comfort of our campus. If I wasn't busy with Garnet Coleman's campaign, I'd sign up for this myself.
If you haven't gotten involved with a local race, this might be a good opportunity to help out a good man running against one of the most right-wing Democrats in the House.
