I've been using the Advanced Tips direction from the park tool site.

~Start wrapping from the bottom
~Wrap tape so that it rotates away from the bike when it comes over the top of the bar . (CCW on left bar and CW on right bar)
~Reverse direction at the shifters/brakes.

This method ensures that your hands are always tightening the wrap.
