Maybe you could call it postpinkslip.com It's a bit shorter and (IMO) sounds better. It's also available.

Yeah, I'm not sure what to use for the name. As other folks have mentioned it might be a good idea to have a name applicable to all job searches (though I haven't found a good name to use for that). I've also tried "after pink", which is rubbish. In a way, though, I like how "after the pink slip" sounds.

Maybe I should drop a vowel : aftrthepinkslip.com

  "Maybe I should drop a vowel : aftrthepinkslip.com"

Please don't do this.

maybe "aftrthpnkslp"

though maybe now that the 2.0 bubble has burst, I should look ahead to web 3.0 and consider dropping consonants

Simple words that are spelled properly are almost always best. If you're in doubt, buy a few domains and test them.

Screw the web 2.0 horseshit.

Yeah, I was being facetious. "aeii" wouldn't really be very descriptive as a name. I'm thinking something like "worksearchtool.com" might work (just got it). Not sure when I'll have the time to test out domains, but that's a good suggestion.

Ironically, once you find a good domain you'll most likely have to buy its misspellings :).

http://instantdomainsearch.com is pretty good

I've got timerichmoneypoor.com if you want it you can have it at cost. As for income sources have a look at SnapTalent and JobSyndicate. I'm also currently working on a recruitment startup so if you want to chat about stuff feel free to send me an email.
