What I generally do is:
1)Listen to suggestions from colleagues/friends/family
2)Research online the various tour company routes
3)Follow the major travel website posts
4)Register with the towns' chatlines
5)Buy the best travel guide & rip out the necessary pages
6)Skype people from the countries I plan to visit
7)Colate all the pertinent info into individual binders so that, as we move on from town to town, we're well prepared.

What I do is to decide on a place we are going to for the year.
After that I read the fodors and frommers destination guides online to get a rough itinerary.
I do most of my research using the message boards as I've found this to be the best - most comprehensive and up-to-date. I usually look at other people's itinerary and adjust it to what I want to see. Look at all the food and maybe even shopping suggestions on the board and then I get going. It's quite time consuming but very much worth it. It's like you know the place even before you've been there!
