You have to give it to Jack for being first in line for government bailout monz. Adena just posted about not one but TWO new proposals asking for a chunk of the bailout. An impressive group of people, representing an impressive group of companies (Autodesk, Microsoft, Oracle, Google, Intergraph), has put their names on number three.

Given this announcement, I am (temporarily) shelving my own bailout proposal (currently in draft form) whereby I explain, with characteristic eloquence, why we’ll all be so much better off if the government sent a few billion my way.

This is getting interesting. Stay tuned.
