    For me it's something along the lines of:

    Two thousannnten.
    Or perhaps, if I'm feeling very lazy, two thousand ten.

    Two thousand and ten just feels like too much of a mouthful. I will say it in formal conversation, but otherwise I'll shorten it to the 'nn' sound instead of the clear 'and'.

    I just don't want to say 'twenty ten'. It doesn't sound like a year to me, it's more like a code or just a random two numbers.

    Twenty/Ten is the only correct way to pronounce it :3
    Saying "Two Thousand Ten" is like saying 1999 as "Nineteen Hundred Ninety-Nine".
    Which was all know is ridiculousness, as its pronounced "Nineteen/Ninety-Nine"

    Twenty Ten all the way. Sounds better. :P

    I'm gonna keep writing 2009 on all my papers... takes like a month for me to get used to used, probably more. :P

    I will pronounce it "Two thousand and ten" .. but I won't restrict it. It won't matter if I say "Twenty ten".

    But I do think "Two thousand and ten" sounds better and easier to say for me.

    Twenty Tenn of course.

    Well, honestly, who called 1999 "one thousand and nine hundred and nintynine years"?
