Triple reader poll: Will the bailout pass? Will the economic turmoil impact tech? Will crisis cause a VC shake-out?

September 29, 2008 | Dean Takahashi | Comments | |

We have a triple poll for our readers tonight as we await Washington’s next moves. There are three separate polls here. First, we’ll see if readers think a revised version of the bailout will be approved by Congress soon. Second, we ask if the economic crisis will impact the tech industry over the next year. And lastly, we want to know if the credit crisis will trigger a shake-out among venture capitalists. Please cast your votes.
