Default OT (sewing): Turning a Corner

Teaching a friend to sew and her question is how to sew a corner.

This is how I do it. http://tinyurl.com/go7i

Any one have any other methods?

I generally go two stitches farther than I need to, backstitch two, turn,
then backstitch two stitches and proceed.

I generally sew to my seam allowance and end with the needle in the fabric,
lift the foot, twirl the fabric around on the needle and continue. I don't
miter the corner like the link shows, but I do clip the cloth so it has a
straight edge like in the link.
