More new year nerdistry: 2011 is not only prime itself, but the sum of 11 consecutive primes, from 157 to 211. (courtesy @bukkhead)

In terms of 11 *consecutive* primes, I believe the next time that will happen is 2141. I'm not sure of the next year that's the sum of some other number of consecutive (or non-consecutive) primes, but should be pretty easy to calculate. It won't be as cool, though, if the number of primes isn't also the abbreviated year, like '11 in this case.
