Barack Obama is president for one day and here are the results:

- Microsoft lays off 5,000.

- Google might fire 1,000.

- IBM won’t tell you how many people they’re laying off. A prediction puts it at 16,000.

- Sun Microsystems finally makes good on their layoff of 1,300.

- Digg gets rid of 10% of its 80 employees. Digg. 80. Employees.

Welcome to funemployment, folks. Go to the beach.
