We all know not to fill a sink and swash the blade in there. On my first shave I used running water. I found the running water method needed to be followed by a towel swipe. Also I have a pedestal sink with no counter space to place a towel. Laying the towel over the sink requires constant re-positioning.
So this is one of the areas I would like to find a good method for so I can eliminate the distractions and focus on my technique.

Geofatboy has a video tip where he swipes the blade on the forearm "spine leading first" I thought this was very good tip.

So does any one have any other methods they would like to share?
