The Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, as an all-sky survey and monitoring mission, is producing well-sampled gamma-ray light curves for dozens of blazars and other high-energy sources. We report highlights of gamma-ray variability properties, and outline multi-frequency observing campaigns that are targeted to new or known blazars which emit gamma rays.
