    Go to your Google inbox using your browser of choice
    Copy the text that is in the address bar
    Go to the desktop (the page where all your icons are) and right-click, then choose New>Shortcut
    Paste the webpage address you copied into the 'Create Shortcut' dialogue. Click 'next'
    Type a name for the shortcut. 'Gmail' is the obvious one. Click 'Finish'.
    The shortcut is now on your desktop. Leave it there, or we suggest drag it to the quick launch toolbar, and that's where it will stay.
