The first thing that came to my mind after reading about this site in one of the groups was,hope not another “hard to navigate” online Bible.
But there was something fresh and new even with the name.The word “Beta” did catch my attention because only the new web 2.0 products are coming out in beta eg:gmail, google reader etc.. So definitley these guys behind the project has something new to offer and you can see that in the user interface put up here (used from another blogger)
As soon as i read about it i went to their site at http://www.ebible.com , alas the registration was by inviation only. So guys reading this post, without wasting a second on this post please go to the website and get yourselves inline for the invitation. On the website there is text box on the bottom left side which allows you to enter you email address for the invitation.
Some of the features this service (which i came to know from bloggers, since i myself haven’t got an opportunity to use it) provides are:
- Different versions(KJV,NIV etc..) which can be compared side to side.
- Great search facility: like searching for a verse would return the page of the verse with the verse highlighted with references too!!
- Tagging and Bookmarking
- Answers section: which would provide the same facility as answers.com .
Overall i think this is a boon for all who tend to spend more time on their pc’s and laptops than on the word of God. Hope and pray that the product turns out to be great and would get all the. financing that they need to sustain their endeavour.
Please do pray for this team, from what i know most of them are believers.
