eBible alpha release

I was fortunate enough to get an invite to the beta release of eBible today.

Very cool! Web 2.0 meets several-thousand-year-old holy book!

I plan to do some digging around in the site over the next few days and post a few more thoughts, but first impressions are very positive. It’s clean, simple, and fast … and there is a Bible search toolbar plugin for Firefox.

One of the things that having a Bible online is good for is stats. As the eBible team figured it out, there are:

• 1,189 chapters
• 31,102 verses
• 783,137 words
• 3,566,480 letters

in the King James Version of the Bible. Now you know!

By the way, I do have an invite to give away, so if you want one, please let me know. The best way to tell me is by leaving a comment on this post.
