It’s called, “The World’s First Infinite Bible,” and it has a very unique interface.
I love their tagline,
The Gutenberg press was just the beginning.
Indeed, it is!
As far as e-Bibles go, this is the most organic experience I’ve encountered in electronic form.

As of today, the Infinite Bible will reside at eBible.com. The domain was recently acquired from GodSpeed Computing and will become a completely new website, powered by the Infinite Bible technology.
As you could see by the video, you can interact with this e-Bible like a real book.
- Highlight or underline specific words within a verse.
- Annotate multiple verses.
- Write notes on the side margin
Another great feature that the Infinite Bible offers on the new eBible.com is mobile access from any mobile device, including the iPhone, iPad and Android.
Not only is this e-Bible mobile, it’s social, too!
You can customize and expand your e-Bible by adding notes, pulling in commentaries, concordance, and even reading with friends. It’s interesting to read other users notes on the scriptures, but the idea of commenting and reading the same passages of scripture with friends is awesome!
I played around with the Infinite Bible’s current/former domain, http://oobible.com, and really enjoyed the experience. I haven’t found such a smooth and appealing interface since YouVersion.
With this latest domain name acquisition of eBible.com, I could see the Infinite Bible becoming a major player and choice for e-Bible use.

I’m all for doing whatever it takes to get the bible in the hands of as many people as possible, but this just looks like a minimalized rendition of YouVersion.

Eric ~
Thank you very much for your take on eBible. Our team here appreciated it very much. We’re excited about our mission to help the world engage in the BIble in a such a clean, free and simple way. Fyi, we are now known as eBible and will transition from oobible.com to just ebible.com. On mobile apps, we’re 95% done and will roll out our iPhone, iPad, Android, etc. sometime in November. For now, users can enjoy it on their smartphone’s browser.
God bless your ministry, Eric. Let’s be in touch.
Best,
Alex Sum | VP of Partnerships | eBible
