How to shoot separate shots for large panoramas


I have seen some awesome panos here on BP and as a novice, I have a question. What is the best way to shoot the individual photos to stitch into a large pano? Do I plant a tripod and then swivel for each shot (which in my mind might distort the plane a bit) or do I move the tripod sideways for each shot? How much overlap in each shot does anyone recommend? I'd really appreciate any info anyone could provide. Also, what's the best software for stitching? I have PSP 8 and Adobe Elements right now. Thanks:-)
