Footer copyright years – my biggest pet peeve

In geological terms, it has been 2009 no more than a tenth of a second, relatively speaking.

Gladly for me, the progress of the web is only very rarely measured in geological terms. And in web terms, it has been 2009 FOREVER.

Therefore, dear friends, Romans, and web people everywhere: take a look at your footer. Seriously, I have seen Fortune 100 companies with 2007 down there. Either simply remove the year altogether, or ask one of your nifty developers to create automatic updating.
