Depends on browser.

In IE and possibly other browsers, you can right click somewhere in the page and "create shortcut"

This presumably works in any browser:
Select text in address bar, right click, copy (or ctrl-C)
right click on desktop, new shortcut
tap in location box, right click, paste (or ctrl+V)
click next
Give it a name
Done!
