Jerry Says……

The best way to prevent key in wrong domain name was using bookmark / add to favourite function in your web browser, Firefox 3 did a good job on that, when i type “Jerry” in my firefox, it will drop down a list of related web link related like “http://jerryong.com” and etc. Remember, bookmark your favourite sites help to prevent similar experience.
