Sorry to hear that. I, too, am in the same boat - today a bunch of
us got the chop from CompuServe/AOL.
The fun is that (having been unemployed through the holidays 3 out of
the past 4 years) there will be nary a whisper of a hint of an interview
until several weeks into January.
I'm thinking of a trip to the South Pacific until the job market pulls
its head out of the Xmas punchbowl.

P.S. - that's two companies in a row that cancelled the holiday party
and had layoffs less than a week later. Nice timing.
