  1. Create an png image call apple-touch-icon.png
  2. Place this image at the root folder of website. E.g for http://techsailor.com, it will be at http://techsailor.com/apple-touch-icon.png
  3. Verify by browsing your website from iPod touch, click the plus button '+' at the bottom panel of Safari Browser, click 'Add to Home Screen', wait for 2s and you will be able to see the icon you have just uploaded.
