Coachella Music Fest offers useful tips by SMS

The 2004 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in Indio, California, starting this weekend, has definitely got the message. They will be offering for the first time an SMS service to keep visitors updated on what is happening prior to and during the show, reports The Desert Sun.

Participants must register online to receive:

- Daily artist performance times for all stages

- Last-minute set time changes (if applicable)

- Traffic and weather updates

- Alternate parking directions (if applicable)

- Art exhibit performance times

Now that's a great and useful application of text messaging. A one time registration for a specific event.
