Austinist has been THE place to get SXSW info this year. They got national attention when they released names of bands playing at the fest way before anything was announced on the official SXSW site. Now they have put together a killer interactive guide to SXSW that combines maps, calendars, articles and even restaurant reviews. A few features that stand out as really cool:

• One click and you can add events to your Google Calendar. You’ll even get text reminders.
• The guide contains parties and lets you know whether they are private or not.
• Gives you a really good idea of how close events are to each other so you can strategize
• Flyers! Click on the button and view the flyers big.

Austinist has beaten out the big media outlets yet again. Good work!
