I (Michael) just finished a week of working at the Digital Bible Society (DBS) headquarters in Conroe, Texas. The bookshelf, pictured above, has paper copies of some of the Bible translations that I have typeset using software that I have written. DBS plans to set up a way to provide those to people at cost.
How many Bible translations do I work on, and where do they go? There are so many Bible translations going so many places that I wrote a computer program to answer that question by generating and constantly updating the web page at eBible.org/metrics. There you can see a couple of interactive maps and several tables of data showing where Bibles go. These numbers are all derived from web server log data, so they don't show the effect of people sharing Bibles person-to-person or any other way than direct from our web sites. I'm continually encouraged by these numbers, and hope that you are, too.
