As well pointed out earlier. Ensure you have a profile on http://www.linkedin.com and grow your network. A man with your skills will be fine. Social media is not only about infighting, there can be some real positives out there.

Brian as smart as you are, you were probably making someone look bad there, That's why they laid you off.

this same thing happened to me.
I have learned (through my experience) that when it comes time for a company to reduce their operating expenses, they want to lay off as few people as possible. So, they tend to lay off the highest paid people on their staff to save th most money.. So, if you are making good money at your job, you have a better chance of getting laid off than a lower paid worker.
