The SXSW Infographic to End All SXSW Infographics
by Sam Dwyer

As much as we all appreciate the wisdom of "that friend" who knows a dude who heard of a guy who met a bro who said there was a lot of buzz around Highlight at SXSW, I think we all agree that it would be nice to see some metrics.

Social media manager tracx, which recently earned $4.4 mil in funding, created a SXSW infographic to end all SXSW infographics. From the social media scene as a whole to the "Official Hangover Food," the study quantifies the event from top to bottom. Now you'll no longer have to wonder whether the Jay-Z concert was actually "whack," or if your friend just couldn't get tickets.

Here's a breakdown of a few leading buzz grabbers before you dig into the epic image.
