Some time ago I learned that OFFF was happening in Mexico. Being born and raised in Mexico City, it is always interesting and intriguing to hear that web-related events happen there.

I knew that I wasn’t going to be able to attend, I wish I could have, in the end… I am glad I didn’t plan on it.

It upsets me to hear that TV Azteca (the second TV Broadcaster in Mx, after Televisa), doesn’t even have the decency to give reasons about why this got cancelled, or even the creativity to make something up.

It is not Azteca’s little neighborhood event, it is an international event that had drawn the attention of some of the most talented new media designers and developers around the world. Granted, they have enough moolah to make it work, and hadn’t this event been cancelled, maybe I could have respected them for backing such important event… but they didn’t.

Maybe this is the reason why they have always been, second. And they will never be first.
