Focusing for self portraits

I've moaned on a few times about trying to get the focusing right on self portraits - the following excellent suggestion came from shoens at www.flickr.com;

"Self portrait focusing idea from Ericson Calderon that I read in the Strobist Flickr group: set your tripod where you want it, take the camera to your posing position, set the focus on the tripod head, set focus to manual (and don't touch the focusing ring), set the camera on the tripod, voila"

It sounds clever and simple at the same time, so I figure it will probably work for me - now to get out there and try it!
