My footer does as you suggest… but I thought to read up on it just now:
It seems that you don’t need a year on a copyright statement as any content always gets life+70 years, regardless of whether it has a copyright statement. The statement is useful though as it states clearly that you own the content.
Adding the current year may not be helpful: if someone looks at a stolen copy of your content alongside your content, your content may look like the stolen one as it will be dated the current year.
