I've heard about it, I've seen it, but how do you do it?

I don't think there are many digital cameras that can do it. I think the Nikon D200 is about the only one I know of.
Essentially a double exposure is when you take a photo and the take another over the top it, so you end up with one image ontop of the other.
Thats my understanding of it at least |

In the lingo of the old film style cameras, a multiple exposure is when you expose more than one image on the same frame of film before advancing the film.
I wish DSLRs did it, I loved doing mutliple exposures with my old 35mm! Through digital photo editing you can do just about the same thing - virtually just combining the images. |

in the old world you could also do it in the darkroom by combining negatives. Thst essentially how you do it in digital, unless your camera can do it :)

Put your shutter speed on Bulb. Take your photo, put the lense cap on, setup for the next exposure, take the lense cap off. Repeat until you are done, then click the shutter button again to stop exposing. Voila, multiple exposures. |

this is how most of us do it. It works much better if you have a dark room and use a strobe of flash to "expose" each part of the photgraph.
see this example and read the notes

I ended up with a mess of those as outtakes in the recent Motion Blur challenge. I'll whip one out and pop it up here in a few. |

Mine does it too... oops, just notice xXsscarletxXx already posted that fact.
edit to add: I've read about it in my manual but never actually tried it!

Did the same thing with this one:
And had a fun time doing it, too. But watch out for any unwanted overlap. Like I got.
