State of the Mirth Turtle 2024

Although I skipped the annual PowerPoint last year to launch Air Mirth One, the feeling of spring in the air has got me itching to make this year's slide deck. In the beginning of May, I'll be looking back on the last two years and tallying up my successes and crushing failures. Plus, I'll tell you my over-ambitious plans for the coming year. Join me for State of the Mirth Turtle 2024!

Catch up on the 2021 and 2022 videos here, and make sure to follow the Twitch channel to get notifications when I go live.

Pushing it to the max

Winter is always a bit slow around here, so it's strange to feel any kind of ambition during a cold month. Nevertheless, I've got a big week planned – two releases, five streams, finishing up corporate taxes, and this coming Sunday, an in-person Go tournament. Plus any other work that happens to come in.

The stakes are high – if I can get everything done, I'll prove that frosty temperatures and minimal sunlight are no obstacle to business success. But failure will surely destroy me, potentially in spectacular fashion.

Will I get everything done?

Will I burn out after the first day?

Will I get wrecked by youths at the Go tournament?

Find out during... Mirth Turtle REDLINE.

UPDATE: No, no, and only a little bit.

A tortoise pivot

With the Go airline about to cross over into the Asian market and the release of the open source Shimari Extension this summer, it feels like Mirth Turtle is on the cusp of explosive success. But just in case any VCs are hovering, it's pragmatic to have a pivot planned and ready. Luckily, there's an adjacent animal from which to execute such a maneuver: the esteemed tortoise.

This fall, a new branch of the business is taking shape. Focused on live coding, open source software, and supporting shareware authors from days past, Source Tortoise Software is almost here to diversify the animal line-up. Keep an eye on the Twitch channel for the inaugural broadcast, and let me know if you think of any more shelled creatures I can incorporate into the project.

Speaking of incorporation, Mirth Turtle corped up this summer, which means I'm now obligated to multiple classes of shareholders! To prevent me from being removed as CEO in disgrace, please help the company earn profits by investing in a Mirth Turtle membership. The lifetime option is most prestigious, but now there's a monthly option too, if you needed a reason to put a 🐢 into your monthly budget spreadsheet. Because let's be honest – we all need more animals in our financial documents.
