Astrophysics with All-Sky X-Ray observations: 3rd International MAXI Workshop (RIKEN, 10-12 June 2008)

The MAGIC collaboration has been performing Target of Opportunity observations of blazars, when seen flaring in the optical by the Tuorla blazar monitoring program. In the past three years, there have been 5 optical alerts during good weather conditions and reasonable declination of the source. Three alerts have resulted in discoveries of VHE gamma-rays from previously undetected sources. In this paper we discuss the discovered sources, MAGIC observations of BL Lac and 3C 279, and we give an outlook for ToO observations of blazars with MAGIC in the MAXI era.
