When it starts boiling? Or when you first put the water on the stove?
The best way I've found is to take the egg in some tongs, run it under really hot water and gently place it into boiling water.

Just dumping a cold egg into boiling water usually cracks it which isn't a horrible thing, but I prefer uncracked eggs.
