Quotes
"Despite his sometimes tough demeanor, Homer was always willing-unlike so many others-to debate his business in an all-out-on-the-table manner I found refreshing compared to the sometimes earnest and smooth spin of most dot-com entrepreneurs." —Kara SwisherCNET: Silicon Valley fixture Mike Homer dies at 50 (February 2, 2009)"I will never forget Mike's passion for people and ideas and all he did for my team, myself, and the many other entrepreneurs, engineers, marketers and business leaders he worked with. He was one of a kind who left us far too soon."—Mike McCueAll Things Digital: Thanks for the Ride, Mike (February 2, 2009)
"I'm not like what I think we have a lot of in Silicon Valley—a lot of people running around networking and talking about the universe and that sort of thing... I'm a wiseass by nature. People that don't know me probably don't see that that much. I'm laughing all day long—mostly at myself. I'm totally into self-deprecating humor. Our industry people take this stuff so seriously, and really, it's only just computers. It's not that big a deal!"—Mike HomerGawker: Mike Homer's illness (June 6, 2007)
