Been there, done that, and not a fan (since I didn't have money saved up for this). If I had some cash, I could have waited a long time for job, but with 4 kids, and a wife, I took the first job that came along. The only thing good about unemployment, the free health care. Once you have it, it doesn't just go away either. You have about 2 years once you have job to get off the "transitional" insurance. Other than that, it really sucks not having money.
