To save a website or web page link to your home screen:

1. Go to the page you want to save.

2. Click on the bottom middlemost button, the one with the arrow shooting out of the box

3. Click on "ADD TO HOME SCREEN" on the popup box

VIOLA!! The page will disappear and the icon of that website will be added to your screen. Click on that web icon and it will take you to that page. No need to open a browser to click on a frequently visited bookmark. In fact, I have created a webcon to this forum so I won't have to search for it.

RELATED TIP:
After you have created two webcons, drag one webcon on top of the other. This will create a folder specifically for your webcons. Drag that folder to your quick-launch bar (the bottom grey bar that is always accessible on any home screen). This will give you instant access to your webcons.

You knew you could do that, right? Add folders to your quick-launch bar instead of just four lonely app icons? Yep!
