If it's really important for you to be formally correct, the order everyone is telling you is mistaken. It should be reversed -- "AD 2007" meaning "in the year of (our) Lord 2007".
"Traditionally English copies Latin usage by placing the abbreviation before the year number for AD, but after the year number for BC"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anno_Domini
But many people do not know this and simply assume the pattern is the same is for BC ("before Christ") dates. So in popular use you will often find the order "2007 AD" .

When we say 2007, it means 2007 AD or anno domini. Anno domini means Year of our Lord. It is not necessary to write 2007 AD. 2007 means the same thing.

anno domini is latin for the year of our lord (referring to Jesus). So basically, if u have a year followed by "AD", it means that many years after the birth (or year) of Jesus. But, as most people refer to AD, it is usually unnecasary to use that reference. the opposite is BC, or before christ
