YouTube and Facebook might be handy tools, but Calare's federal election candidates are divided over the value of the Internet versus pressing the flesh.
Calare Nationals candidate John Cobb has already established his Facebook site, attracting 87 "friends".
"Joe Hockey said to me two or three months back, people want to communicate with us and this is a good way of doing it," Mr Cobb said.
He is also the most active online, having joined several groups, including one known as "Am I tired of Kevin Rudd asking Himself Rhetorical Questions? Yes" and "I support John Howard".
His site features a brief history of Mr Cobb as well as a small collection of photographs.
Greens candidate Jeremy Buckingham is considering moving into the online campaign ground but as yet has only constructed the skeleton of a Myspace site with only two "friends", Senator Kerry Nettle and Greens leader Bob Brown.
"My face isn't pretty enough to have its own book and clearly John Cobb doesn't own a mirror," Mr Buckingham said.
Following his official campaign launch he will look into creating a greater online presence.
Labor Candidate Michael Allen and Independent Gavin Priestly are not jumping on the bandwagon.
At the Australian National Field Days last week it appeared Mr Allen did not need the Internet as long as he had t-shirts with Michael Allen and Kevin '07 written on them.
He said the shirts had been a hit and selling well over the entire event, especially with young people.
"This is not gimmickry, this is a way to localise the campaign," Mr Allen said.
"Literally we've sold dozens and dozens and they're still selling ... young people are really attracted to Kevin '07."
He also added his shirts were manufactured in Australia and printed in Calare.
Mr Priestley said he was in favour of any method of connecting with voters but questioned the reach of Myspace and Facebook in the country.
"I think it's interesting and depends on what the accessibility of the site is," he said.
"I think they certainly get to younger people but you have to be aware that not all people in the electorate have access to broadband."
Mr Priestley and Mr Allen both have traditional websites.
