Nothing is more helpful when you're in the midst of a five day music orgy than text messaging. Those little texts can become your compass. So just as they did during Coachella last year, SPIN is letting you know where to go via text messages at SXSW this year. They promise only 2-4 messages a day, helping you to schedule out your showcase hopping as well as other exclusive info on all of the parties not listed on the schedule. Cool parties. So begin the information overload by sending a text to 68423 saying "SXSW".

We're beginning to think that all of this technology is making things more complicated though. Information coming at you from all different directions when all you want to do is listen to music and have some drinks.
