I literally laughed out loud when I saw this... great project. I'd start checking the Twilio blog (http://blog.twilio.com/) for contests and implement their API to do SMS and Call notifications, you might win something.

We just launched a new gallery full of applications built with Twilio: http://www.twilio.com/gallery We also write about how people are using it one or more times a week on the blog: http://blog.twilio.com. We go to great lengths to promote our customers. We spend as much, if not more, effort on promoting our customer's projects and businesses as we do promoting ourselves.

I blogged awhile back about porting your mobile, land line, or Google Voice number into Twilio for free and hang onto it for just $1/month. You can also make it so your landline numbers can send/receive SMS once they're ported

I tried to explain the various use cases and call legs in our blog post:
