Public beta for Bible linker web app released

Source: PR Web
Story flagged by: RominaZ

Bible readers can now get to the passage and translation they want in an instant with the launch of http://WordOf.GD. Before, users would need to know which Bible study site offered any given translation in order to find the correct version of Scripture they wanted. But this new URL shortcut service for Bible verses lets users create direct links to any Bible passage in any of 30+ translations on the fly.

The web app works in a single step using any web browser address bar. Users simply have to type in WordOf.Gd/ and the scripture verse or passage they are searching for. For example, http://wordof.gd/john3:16 would immediately bring up John 3:16 in the NIV (default translation offered) on a major Bible website. If the user wanted a specific translation, they just need to append the translation abbreviation to the end of the URL. So http://wordof.gd/john3:16WEB would bring up the World English Bible translation on a different website that offers that specific translation without any prerequisite knowledge of which website offers which translation.
