It depends why you are leaving ...
1) You have a better job to go to. - A letter of resignation is the norm.
2) You have a problem with people at work. - Better to talk to someone if you can. Your manager, HR or above. If you like the job then try and resolve the issues.
3) A personal issue. Worth asking for a meeting to discuss - some bosses might be willing to be flexible to help you.
4) You are angry about something and want to get back at someone. - Don't do it yet. Wait until you have calmed down and then take another look at the situation.
It also depends on how you and your boss relate to each other as to how you can deal with it. Some you can talk to , some you can't. At the end of the day a formal letter can cover most events.
First, weigh up the pros and cons and why you want to do this.

How much do you hate him/her? How much has he/she pissed you off? More detail?
You can bear grudges, but do NOT burn bridges. Even if you go, boss might be your client one day. Or even end up contracting for you. The world is a village; you will meet again. Try to keep your personal hurts out of the way of your professional life. All high-flyers do that.
It is worth telling him/her the truth in as civil, pleasant, positive and constructive a way as you possibly can. Very occasionally the individual can't be reached by such means, but you'll have to judge that yourself.
Wait until you have another job before you tell him/her anything at all. The only bluff that can be successfully carried off by everyone is the bluff that is not a bluff. Tell him/her you're leaving when it is definitely true. This is the plan even if boss is really lovely and you're desperate not to hurt his/her feelings.

Apply for other jobs. Put your bosses name down as a referee. When boss is asked for a reference for you then he/she will know you wish to move on.

Bosses and managers are good in nothing but solving cross words or reading newspapers so you can Ask him to solve this problem:
choose the first latter from each word and put them together and then what you got?
Ice-queen-useless-ignorant-tomato.
and when he choose(i-q-u-i-t) he will get ; I quit.

Dont burn bridges.
Something simple like:
I respectfully submit my resignation effective June 15th , 2006.
Signed.
Be respectful during the exit interview, look ahead to your future and good times ahead.
