MacVoices #20216: Khoi Vinh on How Bumpr Lets You Choose Where You Open Links

MacVoices

If you use multiple email clients or need to open certain links in a specific web browser, then Bumpr is for you. Khoi Vinh explains how Bumpr was born out of a need that he and his co-creator Scott Ostler had. You might have that same need as you work from home if your employer mandates something other than what you use.
