quicker way of turning on wifi?

Is there a quicker way of turning on wifi as opposed to go from the Home screen > settings > wifi > on .

Is it possible to put a button on the home screen to turn it on?

Please use the search function of this forum section and you'll find endless amounts of info. I'd rather this thread wasn't taken too far off topic.
