If I ask you that, do you use Facebook? and if you surf the net then the answer would be, obviously yes. And you browse the net, that is why you are here and reading this article. Now, if someone asks you or any netizen who uses Facebook that how you open Facebook or from where? The answer for this, I can say that about 99 % people including you, will say that you open Facebook from entering a URL in a browser address bar. But now, after reading this article you will be able to reach Facebook direct from your desktop just by clicking an icon.
Let's start, for doing this you will need Google Chrome. You can download it from here. After installing Chrome on your system open it. Once you open Chrome go to Facebook homepage and click on Chrome's settings tab which is right below the close button.
Go to Tools | Create application shortcuts and it will open a box that will allow you to place a shortcut on Desktop, Start Menu or Pin to Taskbar. Select the option you want and click create. Now you have done, you can see a shortcut on your desktop.
If you don't like the icon you can change it by downloading an icon from internet and enjoy.
