It is very simple remeber these 2 basic terms:
1)whenever we go from general year to general year or leap year then add 1.
2)whenever we go from leap year to general year then add 2.
Now come to question:
Given Jan 1 , 2006 was Sunday then;
Jan 1, 2010 = ?.
So here we go;
2006(general year) to 2007(general year)=1
2007(general year) to 2008(leap year)=1
2008(leap year) to 2009(general year)=2
2009(general year) to 2010(general year)=1
Adding them=1+1+2+1=5.
now Jan 1, 2010 = sunday+5= Friday.
Hope you guys got it. It's very simple method.

Only takes a remainder number of year.
As 2006-1
2007-1
2008-2
2009-1.
Total remainders number=5.
Then, Sunday from 5 days next Friday.
