Get connected

For you computer addicts coming out to Coachella on Saturday and Sunday, fear not–you can check your e-mail and your MySpace. The AT&T Blue Room is open and has a number of computer terminals for concert-goers.

They also claim that the tent is air-conditioned. I don’t know if I would call it air-conditioned as much as shade from the evil sunshine that is threatening to burn my sunscreen-soaked skin.

However, you can see some acts playing on other stages with a high-quality video feed and recharge your cell phone.

There are a bunch of useful things technology is bringing the Coachella fans this year.

For example, sending a text message to 56658 with ” Coachella” will give you the set times for the main stage each day. .And sending “Gobi,” “Mojave,” “Sahara” or “Outdoor” will get you the lineup for each of those stages on your phone.

The service is free, but standard text messaging rates apply.
